Share your bantam crosses!

I have 3 silkie crosses I'm not sure what they are mixed with as they were sold to me as pure silkies

This is Hokaru, my accidental Silkie/Cochin cross. Her egg ended up in an incubator full of Silkie eggs. I am finding her coloring super interesting. Her father is a paint Silkie, mother is a red Cochin bantam. She has black paint spots as well red coming in on her chest and wings, though base color is dominant white.😊View attachment 3043586View attachment 3043587
So adorable
 
Hope I'm not too late to the party lol. Let's talk about bantam crosses..... 🤣 I have 19 baby bantam crosses and they are all different. And I have no clue what is what and I've given up. They are 5 weeks and 7 weeks. The Cochin bantams are obvious but the coloring is odd. The Combs, the hair fluff, some have 5 toes, the feathered feet ... I give up guessing I can see some silkie and Sebright and OEGB.... But the breeder I got them from literally has ALL their bantams In 1 pen .... Along with 1 lavender Orpington. And yep you guessed it I have a lavender Orpington/bantam cross. maybe y'all can help me identify a few of these gorgeous babies.

If they've got 5 toes those are silkies or silkie crosses! I know next to nothing about Banty breeds so I'm curious to know too. I see quite a few boys in there already though.

I crosses 2 of the breeds you have! This is a hen and rooster of a BB Red OEGB rooster over a Golden Laced Sebright hen.
