    Yesterday I received my order of 6 chicks from My Pet Chicken. I ordered 2 Speckled Sussex, 2 Double Laced Barnevelders, and 2 Easter Eggers, one of which was dead this morning:(. I know EE's may not look alike, but I should have 2 pairs that look alike. I think I've id'd the 2 Speckled Sussex, and 1 barnevelder. One had puffy cheeks, so that's an EE (unfortunately the one that died). So that leaves me 2 unknowns, one of which should be a barnevelder, and the other an EE. What do you think? And what do I do if I was shipped the wrong chicks?

    I think the two closest to the top are the speckled sussex, and the one farthest to the right is a barnevelder. The other 2 (the lightest and darkest) are the unknowns.

    Sorry--I thought I put in a clickable picture so you could make it bigger. Let me try this again.

    Earth! Naw, just kidding, I'm an alien.
    when you are putting up the pic put up the image instead of the thunbnail which is what that is. Also could you put up individual pics? then it would be easyer to determine what they are.

    It is clickable because I clicked on it but even then individual pics would be better.

    It's hard to tell at such a young age, and that isn't exactly the best picture…

    I agree the light yellow one is probably your EE.

    Quote:one of the EE chicks died so there is only one EE in that pic.
