Hi,
I just got some bantam chicks from TSC, and was wondering if anybody could tell me what breed they are?

Chick#1

Chick#2

Chick#3

And here they are with the silkie chicks

Thanks!

There is a way to sex chicks at one day old by the growth of the wing feathers (which is great because you have those pictures) I haven't sexed chicks like that before, but the females have feathers growing in faster then the males so my guess would be is #2 is a male, #3 is a female, and I'm unsure of #1
As for breeds I personally have no idea.

You can only feather-sex chicks if they were specifically bred for that trait--it doesn't work for every breed.

Here are some updated photos

Chick#1

Chick#2 reminds me of a really washed out silver sebright.

Chick#3 how bout a self blue OEGB...

I think 1 and 3 are females and 2 is a male (if you still cared about gender) I sex my chicks at 2 weeks by their tail length. The females have longer tails than the males, as for breeds still unsure. They grow up so fast!

I use that trick alot sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't

I i just think its fun seeing if it works!
I"m almost positive that chick#2 is a silver seabright (I hatched of 17 seabrights under a broodie in October, i had none this lite in color.) the bigger he gets the more he looks like one

and I'm pretty sure chick#3 is a self blue oegb. and chick#1 is still a mystery lol
