Ok, About 9 days ago I got some real cuties at TSC, and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what these babies are? I had someone tell me that D.J was a Quail Antwerp I think, but I'm clueless on the others. I will list the pictures and the names of the chicks in hopes that someone who is more familiar with these breeds can tell me what they are. Here are the pics. Above each pic is the bird's name, and quick description:
These two I grabbed knowing they were the same breed. They were the only ones in the bin that looked like this. They are incredibly sweet and we're hoping they're both girls as the kids named them Suzie and Delilah! I know pictures aren't always accurate but these babies are kind of creamish in color, and the wings are coming in a cream and tanish mixture. They are so sweet and docile, I just love them!:
And here is a pic of their wing color:
Here is Gracie. She/he looks a lot like Suzie and Delilah, except Gracie is gray in color. Again, hoping it's a she! This baby is just as sweet as Suzie and Delilah:
And here is her wing color:
Here is Hoot. See if you can tell how we named it, lol. This is the one that I was told was, I believe, a Quail Antwerp. Is that right?
And here is Hoot's wing:
And here is Sunny. She was the only solid yellow chick in the bunch, and oh so super tiny! She's still one of the two tiniest in the whole brooder. She/he has a different stance than the other chicks. Her chest justs out more, kind of like a Japanese, but she has long legs, not short ones, so my first thought was that maybe she's a Jap with the long leg gene? But then her feathers began to come in, and they were coming in yellow! Now they are yellow, but there are some tan markings on them. She's adorable, and holds her own against the larger chicks better than some of the chicks twice her size! Any clue what she might be?:
And here is her wing:
And lastly, here is DJ. DJ is named as such because it looks like a mini version of one of older EE chicks. This baby is super sweet too. I want to know, IS DJ a Bantam EE? Or is it something else? I grabbed it cause it looked so much like my Donna, and Donna is such a sweet bird. Here is little DJ:
And here is DJ's wing, incase that helps at all:
If anyone has any ideas as to what my little cuties are, I'd LOVE to know. I know it's a bit early still, but if anyone spots a roo, let me know. I'm already up to my ears in roos, but I might make room for one more if it's super sweet, and all of these littles ones are as sweet as can be. Probably some of the sweetest I've ever had. Thanks for looking everyone!
