Hi Guys I am new to chicken keeping, without thinking I got baby chickens, should have bought pullets but well too late for that now. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what sex and breed my chicks might be , I know the little one is called a silkie and he/she is the only on that doesn't freak out that bad when I try to pick them up . Little brown ones are very skittish and their world pretty much ends as I approach them haha . Oh and I am getting 2 pullets they are going to be silver spangled hamburghs , if one or two out of these turn out to be roosters that is,

Thanks guys

great forum for learning by the way

















 
Hello

and Welcome to BYC!!
The two little browns are looking a little rooish but they are to young to accurately sex them, but if you post an update again in the What Breed Or Gender is This? when they are around 8-10 weeks we could guess better. As for breeds I would say the black one with white Barring looks like a Dominique, either that or a Barred Rock but it looks like it has a rose comb so I would say Dominique (what kind of comb does it have?). Do the two white ones have "puffy" cheeks? If not then they might be White Plymouth Rocks. I'm not sure on the little brown ones breeds though

Hi
Thanks for replying .I asked a friend who has some knowledge about breeds. He said they might be California white , Plymouth rock, barnevalder and wyndottes .
So I guess I will put new pics on when they are a little bit older, they are currently only 4 weeks plus.
I think they could also be mixed breed which I didn't want but well cant change nothing now.
thanks
