[jreynolds]

I got these chicks 3 days ago from our local feed store (Rural King). I am trying to determine breed and gender for them, but I'm new at this. So, can anyone help me out? Thanks!!! (sorry for the turd...that's the first thing it did!)

#1.


#2.


#3


#4

not sure on #1...#2 and #3 could be red sex-link or buff orpington...and #4 is a barred rock.

#2 and # 3 might be buff orphingtons

I am not sure what chick number one is, but chick number two and three are production reds and chick number four is a barred rock.

#1 Not sure
#2 Red Sex Link
#3 Red Sex Link
#4 Barred Rock

Wow, it seems I have a mystery chick in #1!

Some controversy over #2, and #3 too... Glad that I got a Barred Rock though, that's what I was hoping for! I'll post more pics of #1 when it gets a little bigger. Thanks so much everyone!

#2 & #3 look like our Buff Orpingtons.

I hope someone can ID #1. Beautiful chick. I really like the coloring.

what type of comb one #1 might be a sliver lakenvelder

#1 looks like a White Orpington. They are grey like that as chicks.

I know I posted that I thought that 2 & 3 were RSL's, BUT........

After looking at pics of my Buffs when they were babies, it does appear that that's what #2 and #3 may be. I forgot that the RSL usually have little "racing stripes" on their backs, at least all of mine did.

Good luck with #1, she sure is cute!
