Struggling to identify these

[pitterpat4353]

Can you help me identify these chicks. They are 3 weeks old. I thought maybe cream legbar... but now really not sure.

This beautiful girl is turning into a Speckled Sussex...I think.

Hmm, it's a little too early to tell yet, where did you get them?

To young to say for sure.

too young have some patience

I got them shipped from Meyer Hatchery. I did assortment picks and have been able to identify the 8 other breeds, but not these 3. I know I have a lavender orpington, buff orpington, silver laced wyandotte, white sultan, silver spangled spritz, 3 black australorp, 2 Easter Eggers, 3 barred rocks or maybe Dominiques.

Well, 4 weeks later and I have an update. The first one I believe is a cream legbar...and probably a rooster. The second looks like it is a Rhode Island Red (in the picture below together) and the third lady is becoming the most beautiful speckled Sussex...I think (second picture)

I believe you’re right on all of them!

Do you think that the Cream Legbar is a rooster? They are 7-8 weeks now.

If he is a Cream Legbar then yes, he’s male. That colouring is only male. Females have more brown and a salmon chest.

Regardless of him being a cream legbar or not, he's a cockerel. No pullet should have such a big comb and wattles at that age, as you can see compared to your other pullets.
