Adorable! All pullets? Do you have first weeks pictures of them? I’d like to compare to chicks I have now!

There are two cockerels in the bunch. They just hadn’t ventured out yet. I don’t have any earlier pics of them. The pullets look very similar to BBR chicks. All the little cockerels had a white dot on their head. I am new to having the Crele color Old English. The breeder picked them out. As they matured. Sure enough, I have two cockerels and ten pullets.

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! My flock has lots of room to roam, so thinking they’ll all do great together.

You’re so welcome, friend! Keep us posted

I have a barnyard mix and I suspect half their heritage to be OEGB or Sebright. I’m new with OEGB and Sebrights so don’t really have an eye for the characteristics that are giveaways Does it look to you like they have a duckwing thing going on?

This little guy is my first start into OEGBs and bantams in general. His name is Tator Tot, a BB Red OEGB.

He is lovely. Looks like my wheaten boy.

He sounds like a squeaky toy when he crows and he tried mounting my light brahma pullet a few days ago lol

@RoostersAreAwesome would be the one I'd encourage you to chat with about this. I certainly don't know but I suspect Polish being somewhere down the line of this cutie pictured. I have a rooster, Auggie, that is feathered in a similar color/pattern, but he doesn't have the "gamey" look. His comb is similar to the pictured bird and his crest is smaller. I'm so curious to see what @RoostersAreAwesome has to say about this one

He really does, it seems the only real difference is Tator Tot has white/pale legs
