What breed are these cuties? Splash?

Meyer Hatchery.

Cool! I've heard generally good things about them. Actually recently watched a video where someone took a tour of the hatchery and got to see all the steps of the process, it was really interesting!

Oh thank god. I'm not crazy

Nope! That are very much male.

Something went wrong. The 2 Swedish flowers, lavender Orp and Polish are all cockerels.

Okay the results are in! The hatchery emailed me back. Any final bets? Lol

The Steele Egger (not a polish afterall) is a rooster! One of the Swedish Flower chickens is a rooster the other is a hen. Def want to breed these 2, but they may be siblings. Is that gross? .....And finally the Lavender Orpington is a hen.!

Unless they did a blood test, they're wrong. Both swedish flowers look identical. If one was a cockerel and one a hen then their combs and wattles wouldnt be the same size or color. And no way that lavender orpington is a hen. I think they're trying to save their butt a bit.

I agree with the above. They are also wrong about the "steele egger", they aren't going to have V-combs. That's a white crested splash Polish.

X2! Meyer tries to cover a lot. I had chick issues with one of my chicks and they denied everything. They totally screwed up.

I'm going to wait until they are fully grown to respond to them, that way there is no "if". I mean, the chicks were only $3 each so I'm not going to textually assault them and accuse them of trying to "save their butts". I'm actually a nice, reasonable person.

I'm not a noob to chickens, just to raising a roo from a chick.

I agree that it's a splash polish, its identical to their list photo even.

Eh, I've been called worse.
