Ny-chicken-lover chickenstock '17

Pics
Not even 1 water fowl of any sort. I did get 52 cx and my surprise box had 64 with 1 casualty of travel. So far I can identify 4 of them and some bozo wrote columbian Wyandotte and buff orpington along with 2 other breeds we can't read because they tried to scribble it out. I can also say I have 2 Grey something. There are a lot of black with white on them , 1 white (well yellow for now) with 3 or 4 black dots on its back. Some of the black ones have a white spot on top of their heads.

Congrats! It'll be interesting to see how they feather out. Was the surprise box straight run or pullets?
I wonder if the white with black dots is a Tetra Tint or one of the Leghorn crosses??
There's several breeds that are black and white as chicks - though could be Barred Rock

it's straight run so I'm hoping it's not all cockerels.

Hopefully not! With straight run, they could be black sex link males, plus barred rocks - which I believe, both have head spots, just the males are larger.

do they look anything like this? (google search images)

black sex links




barred rocks



australorp


just to name a few of the "black and white" chicks
 
@myfivegirls it could be any of those. There is also this
400
It's tiny with what looks like a very short buzz cut.
 
@Pyxis I'm hoping to have the following for chickenstock : Australorp chicks and possibly some hatching eggs
SLW chicks, no eggs
EE chicks and eggs
Bantam Cochin chicks and eggs ( depending on fertility ) Blue, Blue
and Black Mottled


I have pure Am. roos, 1 lav, 1 blue covering my EE hens,which are half Am. The eggs are various shades of blue, green and olive.
If there is interest I can also bring brown eggs covered by these roos also. My hens are Welsummers, Australorps, Barnvelders, Cuckoo Marans, Barred Rocks, Speckled Sussex, Heritage RIR, BLRW.


Also the possibility of a pair of Malines hatched Dec.2016


I will only bring chicks/eggs/juvenilles if contacted. PM for prices
