Hello everyone,
My husband and I are the proud parents of 4 one year-old hens that we got as 6-8 week old pullets last spring from My Pet Chicken, and we recently picked up 3 chicks from the bins at Meyer Hatchery. We built their coop from a free repurposed play set, but it somehow still cost us $$$ (and some of our sanity) to complete.
We have a Chocolate Orpington (Eggan Thee Orpington), Salmon Faverolles (Chicki Henaj), Opal Legbar (Lil’ Hen), and Blue Ameraucana (Cardi Beak). Just about 3 weeks ago, Cardi was aggressively broody, so she became the adoptive mother of our three yet to be IDed chicks Whitney Rooston, Chicka Khan, and Sadegg. I would LOVE help identifying their breeds. I will attach day old and almost 3 week old pictures. Pretty sure Whitney Rooston is a mottled Ancona, but the other two I’m less sure about.

Chicks for ID:

I have stalked these forums for years prior to starting our flock and still constantly check here for answers to my questions. So thank you all for sharing your knowledge and experience!
