What color would you guess these are?

I purchased splash Cochin eggs. And some project eggs. Project are EE/Cochin that look like Cochins but may have cheeks and lay green eggs. These 10 hatched last night/this morning. 3 are splash Cochin. 7 are project chicks. No clue who is who besides dark ones are project. A pic of front and top of each chick. Guesses on color????

Not sure on color, so maybe @JedJackson @Overo Mare or @Rhodebar Lover can help with that.. but I’m curious. Did you start this after making this post in my thread a while back?

It’ll be interesting to see if they lay the green/blue eggs! Excited to see how yours turn out!
All 5 of mine are still doing great!

I actually purchased the eggs from eBay. She had splash Cochins that I wanted. Then I saw her listing for these ones. She has been working on it for 3 years she said. All of hers lay green. The chicks came from green eggs, well the project ones.

But I did put one of my EE hens eggs under my broody and it was the only egg to start and hatch. Hoping it is a pullet and can't wait to see the color of the eggs she lays if she is a she. It is only 4.5 weeks old.

It's tough to tell at this age, but I think the dark ones are either black or blue and the lighter ones are splash. There could be gold leakage in the EE crosses.

Ok thanks. I do think dark ones are blue think too light to be black. Was more the lighter I was hoping was splash and not light blue.

This is the chick that the mom is a red and white EE and dad is a blue Cochin. Moms eggs are so pale they look almost white. (This was the mix I mentioned in that post). Chick is being raised by my silver laced Cochin

Hoping this one turns out to be a girl so I can see what color eggs she lays.
