I've figured out most of what I got in that order but these three are giving me a little trouble as there's more than one breed they could be. I'll update this post with pictures as they get older.

Pilot

--------------------
Hannibal




-----------------------------------------
Cannonball(I initially thought she was the same breed as Hannibal but now I'm unsure)




------------------------------------------
Icarus

Hannibal looks like a Cuckoo Marans to me, but I'm not sure about the other two.

Thank you! I wasn't sure if she's a Cuckoo Marans or a Dominique. They look very similar to my eyes at this age going off pictures and videos.

Hanibal: I'm not convinced Marans. Shape just doesn't look right for Marans. Legs are a wrong color for too...it should have more white/grey legs, but hatcheries have wrong leg color all the time. Pattern is not really showing correctly either for cuckoo. Not seeing Dominique either (it would need a rose comb as well). That's not a head spot but more of a head ring. Not sure what Hanibal might be...will think on that....could you get a full pic that doesn't cut the head off? I'd like to see the patterning better and the comb.

Pilot may be a Phoenix.

Icarus...what is the leg color and toe count? Less grainy picture would help too for comb type.


Sorry I'm not more help...more photos may make things clearer.

I posted more pictures of them that I took a few minutes ago. I guess they were trying to settle down because they were all very grumpy about being handled but tolerated it.

Icarus has a greenish grey tint to her legs. I think I got a picture with her legs in it up now.

With the better pics, I can agree that Hanibal is likely a Cuckoo Marans....which is why I asked...photo angles and lighting can change chick appearance significantly.

Pilot I still think is likely Phoenix.

Icarus...new pics made a big difference...I'm thinking Golden Campine

Thanks

I was going to try to take pics of Pilot too but Icarus flew off the washing machine and sat next to the breeder so I decided to give it a rest.
