Tractor supply Marans and others?

[Alexandra33]

All red production breeds (not my forte, everybody else can figure out what they are), and I don't think your black chick is a Marans. Generally, Marans are feather-legged. I realize not all are, but it seems 90% at least have a few little tufts of down in that area.

Looks more like an Australorp to me.

Australorps do not have white feet. Looks like a Black Australorp to me.

Ok thank you all for the help

I went to look at TSC chicks early Friday 8am and the cashier there had no clue what kind of chicks they were. Unless you got someone who actually knew breeds who knows until they're bigger? The black one does look like my Black Australorp when she was younger (love her! the calmest, friendliest of all 12).

Cute. I am not familiar with the breed. Can we see the maran one?

The last one, the colors look like a gold laced Wyandotte. What does it's comb look like?

My gold-laced from MPC is very dark brown and I thought she was the black australorp for weeks until her gold started coming in around 3 weeks. Even now at 6 weeks, the gold stripes aren't noticeable until you're close to her, definitely not as many colors as the pic above.

Every bird I have are single combs. These ones are growing EXTREMELY FAST. Way faster then most of my breeds. But two are staying tiny compared to the rest. My “marans” are in a separate container I’ll take pictures today.
