Hey all I said a while back that I would post pics of the birds I got from Ideal when they were running the 25 assorted bantams for .99. Well they are about a month old and I was only able to get pics of a few of them all the others refused to hold still long enough for me to get a photo. I ended up with like 8 Frizzled cochins, 1 not sure if it's barred or birchen cochin, what appears to be 2 partridge cochins, 1 Mottled cochin I think, a few other colored one and 2 silkies 1 white and 1 black. Not sure what what the other ones are. I have a couple of pics of a couple wondering if you guys had any idea. Well enough of me talking on to the pics

The first couple of pics are of the only white frizzle I got. It's the prettiest one out of all the frizzles and one of my favorites overall

This pic is of what I believe to be one of the partridge cochins.

This is the one I think is either Barred or Birchen

This is one of the ones I'm not sure about can't really tell from the pic but it's got black skin and like a really light blue feather color

This last one is another one I have no idea about. It stands more upright and has longer legs than the rest. It's legs are alot bigger around than any other birds.

Cute chicks! I love the white frizzle. I agree with the other poster, it is definitely a male.

Your fourth photo isn't a barred or birchen cochin, it a silver pencilled cochin and it has pullet coloring! Silver pencilled cockerels have different markings at that age. I have raised most of Ideals Bantam Cochin colors. If t isn't a Silver pencilled cochin, it is a bantam dark brahma. What kind of comb does it have? And you are right, that is a partridge cochin.

I love Ideal's bantam specials. However, I generally only keep the cochins and sell the rest.
