Hi,
I bought 6 bantam chicks from our local feed store that got them from Ideal hatchery. Unfortunately I can't figure out what they are as Ideal doesn't have any real pictures, just drawings. All these chicks are 2 weeks old.
This is Chinchilla (not sure of sex)
The coloring is that of a blue chinchilla with cream starting to come in on his/her chest (see the first pic)
This is Lemon Head (my husband named it!)
This is Nibbles. If this doesn't turn out to be a rooster I'll be surprised...this is one spicy chick. Smaller than everybody else and goes after my standard size chicks which are at least twice as big as he is.
This little one is Wisp. She's not white, she's the same color as my blue Cochin chick and my blue splash Maran chick. It's kind of a light bluish gray. The comb is very pink.
The chick in the middle and the little black one below are the last two unknowns. I thought the chipmunk one was going to be a bantam welsummer but I have a standard welsummer chick in there and they don't look anything alike. The little black one is the tiniest little chick I've ever seen. I've seen bigger sparrows. The chick is totally black with absolutely no color coming in at all. Legs are black as well.
