EDIT EDIT: I'm so sorry to say but my babies died yesterday while I was at school. The heat got to them, I have others but only the two I bought from the farmer man died so I assume it was his fault, for not taking better care of the babies he sold to me, I will not buy anymore from him and I think after having these babes for 3 days and them dying is terrible, I think they might have been sick when I got them. Thank god I take care of my chickens and it was a shock to find them in their cage like that. I cried for hours. My mom barried them. RIP sickly? baby chicks.

Well these are my newest girls, Brookelynn and (unnamed) ... I was wondering what color you guys think they are? I guessed partridge rock on the smaller chick:

EDIT: The white one IS a hen, its just hard to show you guys pictures. There isn't a single bit of pink on the comb or waddles, the personality also says says they are both hens + the reaction/reaction tests are awesome and they rarely fail. (swoosh hand across cage, hens sit - roo's stand and watch ... both babies sit when scared, tell me that makes one of them a rooster, its simply not true) Nice try though, I've sexed many many baby chicks and done it the right way

al6517: I'm not sure, I bought them from a farmer and sexed them myself. Apparently they are purebreds of his chicken trios...he has over 30 different breeds ... so they can be just about anything.
MagicPigeon: They are there, what browser are you using? here's one of the URLs:link

how many different kinds of chickens have green legs?

EE, Aracauna, Sicilian buttercup (but the wrong colors)....any more...?
 
IDK on the partridge bird other than that the leg color looks wrong for a Rock. The black & white one appears to have EE legs and rusty red splotches emerging on his back.
 
I'm sorry but there's a lot of misinformed "breeders" out there - Your birds aren't all purebred.

The black and white one is an Easter Egger (mutt, the farmer probably thought as his hatchery source told him that they're Ameraucanas) Also, it's a boy.


The brown and black one is likely a Partridge Rock. (purebred
