What breeds?? Bantam assortment ~PICS overload!

[1lpoock]

I ordered half a dozen bantam assortment hatching eggs from meyer hatchery...one was infertile, but 5 hatched!!! Please help me figure out what kinds they are!

1. Clean Legged
I'm thinking Black or Grey Japanese...I have another chick like this too.

2. Clean Legged
I'm thinking Silver Sebright...am i right?

3. A bit of feather on the legs
I'm thinking Red Frizzle Cochin...its the only one that it looks like in their catalog.

4. Feather Legged

I think its my first silkie...black legs and beak and skin and 5 toes!
I'm just wondering what color silkie, its all silver

I'm pretty sure your right! The silkie, is definetely a silkie! Looks like a blue silkie. I'm not sure about the one you think is a cochin, but my best bet is your right... seems to me to be the most simmilar too.

OMG, they are sooooo cute!

If it is a frizzle cochin, will its feathers "frizzle" or is it just on some of the chicks?

Frizzling doesn't breed true unless you breed a frizzled bird to another frizzled bird, which causes high chick mortality and too much frizzling - thus broken-off feathers in chicks who survive. Those babies are called Frazzles. So breeding a straight-feathered bird to a frizzled bird should give you half and half, I think. So your baby could be frizzled, but maybe not.
