Our chicks came - not sure on 3 of them!

[FullHouseMama]

We ordered 15 chicks from Meyers Hatchery that arrived today. All seems healthy! I ordered 4 Austra white, 2 barred rock, 2 RIR, and 7 rainbow pullets. We got 16 chicks. I have the ordered ones figured out and and 5 narrowed down (maybe LOL) but the last 3 I a could use some help with. I didn’t know if the brown head line on the one was random or breed specific.

Check out Meyer's site on that...

Thank you. We tried but they are so similar. I tried to find a description on any specifics that might determine breeds because I am still learning what to look at.

The other thing you can do is message them directly on their website. I did that when they added the 'meal maker' and they confirmed it was a leghorn. If you're having trouble see if they can send you a list of what they sent

Is there any way you could get shots of the chickies that show their faces and leg color? It's a little hard to tell given the angle.

Thank you again I didn’t know if they kept track or just randomly threw a few in ;-) I thought the kids would enjoy the unknown surprise but they used to be homeschool kids so they have to know if they are correct and want to research each breed before they pick a name! LOL
