rescued chicks-need help on the breed

[chickenlver2013]

My dad found these in his yard along with the mother. They are small like a bantam chick. Any ideas?

Do you have any updated photos and a picture of their Mom??

I found those chicks a couple weeks ago. They're about 2 weeks old. I just took those pics yesterday.

Is Mom a bantam? She reminds me of a Black Tailed Buff Japanese. The babies have pretty dark wings to be that, but I suppose it's a possibility, or they could be mixed.

I don't know. I she is a bantam I've never seen one big like her. The eggshells we found were white. The babies were very small when we found them. The mother has the longest legs i have ever seen. She's bigger than my dutch bantam.

Hmm. Japanese are known for their short legs, but long-legged ones do pop up frequently. She would probably be bigger than the Dutch as Dutch are the smallest bantam breed (besides serama). I'll stick with blacktailed buff as the best guess until someone has a better suggestion.
