I don't have a clue, but they are certainly precious! Have you checked Feathersite? They often have pics of chicks at the bottom of each breed.

Haven't even thought about going to feathersite. Thanks!!! It slipped my mind!

Maybe a faverolle and maybe a cream silkie bantam
don't know but guessing

First three look like cochins. The rest... dunno. I don't see any silkies in the bunch either.

 

[kentuckysilkies]

#1 is a Splash or light Blue Cochin
#2 is a Dark Blue or Black Cochin
#3 is a White Cochin

Sorry but I cannot help on the other three.

three of them look like silver spangled hamburgs

I was hoping #5 was a silver spangled hamburg. It is white with black markings. Number 4 is tan and white. Kinda a creamy tan. Number 6 is a soft blue with a white beard. They are so adorable. They look like little popcorns when they are playin'. Jumpin' all over the place! I have 2 partridge silkies that are 2 weeks old. I put them in the brooder with the baby bantys. They don't peck or pick at the younger ones, but silkies are so easy going.

#5 SS Hamburg was my guess. Our Lady Slipper looked just like that.

Here she is at 10 days, checking out feathersite...

Lady Slipper is beautiful!!! Our #5 is feathering out already on her or his wings just like Lady Slipper. Good sign!!!
