What Breed are these?

[cranzenbach]

I recently ordered a mix of 18 and out of all of them I have only really had confusion with these two. I most recently thought they might be Phoenix chicks, but they had really weak markings as chicks so it was really hard to say definitely either way.

So first off is the chick I thought was a golden sebright:

He's the one in front with his bright orange head I was almost sure he was a sebright. But now:









And he's definitely a cockerel because he starts crap with EVERYBODY.

Secondly we have the other dude in that same picture, he's another of her:


I saw her because she is sweetest chick we have so I am very much hoping she is a pullet. Here are some pics so maybe you guys can tell me what she is. I haven't the slightest idea.



See I told you she was friendly ^_^














Thats all I've got thanks again for the help you guys!

Adorable chicks!

Are they bantams? If so, it will be hard to guess what they are. I would either say Old English Game or an Easter Egger bantam.

 

[cranzenbach]

Yes they are bantams. I ordered a bantam assortment, ended up with 18 chicks that I can identify, and not these two...

Where did you get them from?

 

[cranzenbach]

I would be pretty pleased if she was an easter egger. I didn't think I had gotten any ^_^

Cackle Hatchery. After you mentioned I looked at the stock photos they have and I saw a few chicks and a few adults I could see being her, but Easter Eggers are hard to identify... They all looks so different

ANYBODY?

Upon looking at the pictures at Cackle, I have to change my guess to the Ginger Red Old English Game. They have the same color, same large eyes, and same grey skin.

Yeah I actually found a picture and was like oh dang that sebright I thought I had is one of those. NEAT! But do you think that the other little one is the same species? And also, at what age do they start showing green tail feathers if they are male, do you know?

 

[GitaBooks]

My chickens started getting green tail feathers at around 4-6 weeks of age.

The two look like the same breed.
