Please Show Off Your Black, White, and Black and White Chickens

[3KillerBs]

Thank you for reviving my thread.

I now have black and white chickens of my own -- just month-old-chicks at the moment and looking very awkward in their unfinished feathers, but charming anyway.

Hooray and congrats on your babies! What variety did you get? I love the awkward, just-starting-to-fledge look.

I have two Dark Brahmas, one Light Brahma, one Australorp, one Black Langshan, two Delawares, and 5 packing peanuts whom I'm referring to as Big Red Boys. One of them was supposed to be a second Light Brahma.

The Big Red Boys will not be staying.

I'm keeping 4-6 of the hens.

Congratulations again. I love the black/white contrast. I certainly didn't plan on all black or white chickens when I started, but nature took away my RIRs, so there you go.

Was given these two. They said they thought they were black astrolop and easter egger and one laid pinkish eggs and the other off white they think. Haven't lain eggs for me yet... I don't think either looks like easter egger.

The dark one who turned and hid her legs before snapping photo has grey/black legs and clean legged. The other I think looks like some light braham mix (has feathered legs). What do you all think?

And they DO both lay some degree of brown eggs right? Am I wrong in my breed and egg color deductions?
Note: This is right AFTER I gave them an ash bath/dusting so they are quite rough looking.

Feathered feet and no upright comb suggest light Brahma. Which I love.

I can't keep all the birds I got this year, but am really taken with the idea of a 'tuxedo' flock.
So far have a Domenique , light Brahma, Lakenvelder, Columbian Wyandotte, splash and black Andalusians, and a white crowned Polish.
