These arrived today.

What's your vote?



blue andalusian, blue hamburg, or blue oprington



blue laced red wyandotte or welsummer? has a very grey chest/belly



white leghorn, white plymouth rock, or male golden sex link? (I think this is our meal maker, not part of the rare breed)
 
Hi Trsturself,

The blue one looks like a Blue Orpington to me, because the legs are pink and slate combined.
The middle one looks like a Welsummer to me, because the markings and I don't see any blue at all in the chick.
The last one looks more like a Plymouth Rock to me, because of the white around the egg and the legs are not too yellow.

Just my opinion of course. Enjoy your pretty chicks!!
 
1. I'll say Hamburg, though it could be an Orp.
2. BLRW. No way that is a welsummer chick.
3. Most likely red sex link cockerel if it was an extra.

This is a welsummer chick:
 
Thanks! After looking at more pics I agree with Blue Orpington and BLRW. As for the white one, who knows. They all look alike to me at this age! I am really leaning toward male sex link just because they were running a sale on them like they had too many so it wouldn't surprise me if they use those to fill the meal maker orders.

I'm really excited about the blue orp and the blrw. :)
