Odd-toed bantams...what are we? *second mystery chick pic added!*

[Overoberyl]

Five toe'd feather legged could be a porclien D'uccle, a Sultan, or a salmon faveralle. The puffy cheeked 4 toed baby could possibly be an EE bantam.

D'Uccles do not have five toes...

It could be a bantam Sultan. They have five toes and beards, and are included in the assortment if they sourced from Privett...

The first chick looks like it could be a blue MF D'Uccle.

Thanks!! I think that looks very much like chick #1! Awesome...

I don't think chick 2 is a Sultan, I have raised them before andhe doesn't seem to have the head bump like my others did. I'm glad I decided to take him, he is providing us with a lot of guesswork entertainment.

I'm starting to feel confident that chick #2 is a bantam white Cochin with extra toes. Does that frequently happen?

I'm really not sure. I wonder if it's just an anomaly, would it show up in both feet like that? I would guess it's more likely one of the other 5-toed breeds (Dorking, Faverolle, & Houdan)...obviously not a Silkie, and like you said, probably not a Sultan...

It makes me wonder, too, about the likelihood of it being present in both feet. Maybe that's how it works? The feet aren't strange looking at all, they look like perfect 5-toed feet. I sent a pic of the little guy to the hatchery to see if they will be able to tell what is going on.I do know one thing, he is sweet natured!

Is it a bantam? No hatchery has bantam Faverolles.

 

[Sparrow]

They are all bantams from TSC, Privett Hatchery.

I think we have it figured after a ton of research referencing pics that are better than the ones on the hatchery's site. I'm leaning towards Porcelain d'Uccle o the buff winged one,and a white Cochin on the white winged one, for whatever reason expressing the 5-toed gene. So, total count is: 1 OEGB(not sure on color), 1 black Japanese, 2 self blue d'Uccle, 1 Porcelain d'Uccle, 1 weird white Cochin. Sweet.

The 5 toe one could be a silkie

He is definitely not a Silkie, he has regular white feathers growing in on his wings, and yellow skin.
