Tractor Supply Mystery Chicks

[suzndannie]

We picked up 2 mystery chicks from the container signed "Bantams" at TSC a week ago. We're guessing that they are a couple of weeks old, but would love to know what breed they are! Here are 2 pictures of one chick and 4 pictures of the second one. Notable are the 1st one's pink toes and the 2nd one's puffy cheeks.

The second set look like cinnamon queens to me.

We got 6 chicks from TS, now 6 weeks, picked Rhode Island Red (that’s what your 2nd one looks like to me, but I am not expert, but TS only carries so many breeds... but what’s funny is that they gave us an oddball and I posted a thread here too.

Oh my gosh, TSC had a whole trough of mixed bantams today and I just stood staring at them picking out all the ones I would want to take home. There were some with dark combs, some with feathered feet, some that were pale blue. I waaanted them. Then I tore myself away and have been pouting ever since.

No expert either but this is a cinnamon queen that I got from tsc. A few weeks older obviously.

From a hatchery/feed store, the puffy cheeks almost always means Easter Egger. They don't source ameraucanas, too expensive.

Thanks so much to you all for taking the time to respond!! We're planning to post more pix as they grow & let you all know how they turn out!

Thanks again!

I tend to disagree I have 8 americanunas all from either a feed store or North 40
