Quote: The bird on the left looks like a Dutch bantam (mix?) because of his white ear lobes. But the bird on the right, judging by his coloring, looks like an OEGB.

I have some mystery chicks that I purchased to put under a broody, and I'm pretty sure one is a OEGB. I have never had the breed before, but I think this is a silver duckwing? Also, how soon can you tell roo vs pullet with this breed? The chick is just over four weeks old, and I am leaning pullet, but I have never had this breed, or any bantams for that matter, before.Any input appreciated! It is a very calm chick once you catch it, but a little flighty, so the pics are not the greatest. If these are no good I will try for more. Thanks.

You are correct! That is a Silver Duckwing, AND, you're in luck! It's a pullet!

WOW!!!!!!! Sooooooo putty!!! I'm building the coop for mine. I'm going to get some Cream Buttercup OEBs in the spring.

This is the only pic I can find. It's a new variety from Ideal. I just hope they really look like that.

They definitely wot look as nice as the picture for two reasons. 1-they are new so not much work has been done with them and 2 they are coming from a hatchery

True. I thought about the hatchery thing, but hadn't thought about them being so new. I guess they all have to start somewhere.
