We picked a chick out of the bin at our local farm supply store from the Rainbow Layers pullets. We weren't really sure that raising chickens was something we could do, but after reading LOTS here, we decided to take the plunge, built a coop and now have 12 chicks. Some we bought from a local farm,and are fairly sure what breed they will be, but this little 5 week old Rainbow Layer could be so many things from all the pics I have seen. This farm supply store gets its chicks from Estes. Do you folks have any guesses as to what this might be? My kids ( 5 of them ranging from 15 to 7) are all excited about learning everything they can about their new pets and this one really appears to be a total guessing game, beyond whether or not they will have to part with it if it turns out to be a cockerel
