Looking at Cackle Hatchery's pictures, the Silver Duckwing OE don't all have the eye stripe, and look super close to mine's coloring. What's cool is my mom had a little banty hen for years and years that we never really knew what she was. After looking at all these pictures, she must have been an OE or a mix that had a lot of OE in her. My mom was so happy to finally know what her little chicken was, ha ha!

edited to fix a spelling oops!

Chick # 4 is a Bearded Belgum Millie Flure D'uccle ( Do clay) I just hatched a brooder full of them from my own birds. They are very sweet, even the boys. They love people. I call mine the welcoming commitee.
 
From a previous posting.


This is the second posting of someone going to TSC and leaving with chicks or ducks or what ever and it has to stop, I tell you!

There has to be some mental help for people like the ones on this forum! (myself included) Oh sure I passed on the chiiicks but I bought ducks so that's ok. NOT!

That's like saying I passed on the jelly donuts but I bought the glazed. It's the same addiction just different stuff.

I think this forum should have a mental health worker on here to assist those of us who may want/need help kicking this addiction.

Lord knows I have tried. I called my Doctor and I swear I heard him say, "take two chicks and call me in the morning". Really , he was no help at all.

So please. IF you go to TSC do not go alone, go with your sponsor. Who will ask you the pertinent questions. "ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND"?!!!! or "WHAT THE H*&^ ARE YOU THINKING?!!!!!!


Now if you'll excuse me I need to go to Tim Hortons and buy a dozen chicks, I mean donuts. (tim's is right next to TSC). lau Seriously I can hatch my own donuts and make the kind I want. I meant cook not hatch, really I did!

Hope all goes well for the OP and stay away from TSC everyone until the donut season is over. lau

Geesh, I didn't think I had a problem. Now that I've read that chicken addiction is a real problem I'm a bit worried. A chicken hoarder? Maybe, but I prefer Chicken lover. I too am guilty of not being able to always pass by those bins without looking in and falling in love with those little puffs of fluff. So ok , I waited after work (off at 6:30 am) until TS opened on chick day. So home I came with 6 babies from the assorted bantam bin. I choose 2 d'Uccles, 2 that look like BB reds, and 2 that look just like the chick in your second picture, no idea there. I think the funnest part of buying from the assorted bin is trying to figure out just what breed they are.
Best of luck with your choices, I'm sure you will be pleased with them no matter what they are.
