What am I? (Take two...not a Delaware after all!)

Well...the white one's are probably gonna have a Columbian color pattern, can't tell this early much else...if the bottom of the black one's feet are yellow, I would say Jersey Black Giant (not Black Giant, JERSEY

). Also, if it looks like a dinosaur when it starts feathering out, and is pretty large, I would say Jersey. If so, you are so lucky! I don't think sex link, but won't know for sure until there is some gold on the neck-if so, sex link.

They do not start out red. Here is one of my NH chicks, the one outside the door. I'm not 100% sure since many chicks start out yellow, but it's on your list and very much like the ones I've had.

The above yellow NHR chick as it feathered in more...see the color turning?

Your NH's do look like my chicks! I looked closer and the one with more dark feathering has slight hints of red/brown coming inside of the dark streaks. Is there any easy way to sex these, they aren't sex links are they?

 

[speckledhen]

No, they are not sexlinked, sorry.

 

[Andora]

I'll just have to wait and see I guess!

Keep us updated and see if they turn red! They are great egg girlies so you are lucky!

My NH girls, Lucy and Penny, are excellent layers of ex lg to jumbo eggs. Lucy's is quite dark and beautiful with an even tone and shiny surface. Penny's is a few shades lighter.

the first 2 chicks look like sexlinks, the ones they use with delaware hens , they would be males, black chick does look like a black sexlink to me, i made them for awhile with a rir rooster and barred rock hens, only the male black sexlinks have the dot on the head, so you have 2 roosters and a hen, time will only tell if i'm right
