Your birds are Silver Ginger OEGB-not porcelan,nor Dutch

This chicken does not look like a serama. Seramas have short, almost no, backs, VERTICAL wings and tails, and a large,high breast. See my page for what a serama is supposed to look like.

Hatcheries frequently cross dutch varieties with oegb to obtain interesting and new colors of "dutch" When you found a pic of a porcelain dutch that looked just like yours... was it a hatchery photo or from a dutch breeder website?

Here is a link to our Dutch Breed Page which explains further what I am saying. https://www.backyardchickens.com/breeds/dutch/419

The following are Porcelain Dutch pullets, in the pics they are around 6-7 months old... They are gray and cream, have slate legs and white lobes(lobes aren't really developed to standard on these girls but they were hatchery chicks).
Moonlight

Sunshine

Sunshine and Moonlight(they are a couple months younger here)

Yeah that is why mine didn't develope larger lobes probably... But they were pretty girls nontheless.

My chicks have have mostly slate legs except for the hen. I have 5 roos and 1 hen
They all are starting to develop the white ear lobs. They were hatched out around the begining of june. The picture that I googled were from various breeders and they all looked just like my birds. That is why I was convinced that they are Porclain Dutchies. The breeder sold them to me as dutchies. I did not ask at the time what colour they were. I hope that they are dutchies. I do not see the cream in these photos? I just see the light blue and the grey silver

No, that is cream on sunshine and light gray, Moonlight was a darker gray with less cream(just the lighting or angle on the camera making hers look whiter), which is why we named them accordingly. The are passed on now because of a fox.

Can you post a clearer pic at a complete side angle of the girly? In the meantime here are some link to Dutch and OE game on Feathersite.... BTW good idea to keep the following site in your favs as it is really good reference to different poultry breeders clubs etc...
