What kind of chicks are these?

What I wonder is.... My BR pullets seem like they get pink in their combs and wattles/ears, but it comes and goes. Seems more like excitement flush or something?

Wattles can and will 'blush' from excitement or stress, as will the skin around the comb. The comb itself should remain pale.

Ya, my EE chicks are very fluffy. From the top ( how some of your pics are) you can see their puffy cheeks quite well. There is a ton of breed information out there. I hope you have as much fun learning about them as I do. Plus I like the breed/sex guessing game, it's exciting to watch.

I've been having so much fun. I can't wait until it comes a bit easier. There is so many different breeds. I never knew. It's exciting to be learning so much though.

Incorrect. Easter Eggers do not have Ameraucana in them. They are derived from the same import stock, but Ameraucana have been bred towards a particular standard and Easter Eggers have not. If you want to get technical, Ameraucana have Easter Egger in them; not the other way around.

Really, that is is most interesting, do you know of any thing I could read on the subject?

What part of norcal are you in? I am in Crescent City. I used to be a socal girl, then I learned the truth. And I love it up here.

I too love the guessing game with breed/gender and can't wait to see what 3 of the babies I have are. Supposed to be 2 Swedish Flower and a Black Jersey Giant. But we shall see... eventually, they are 2 weeks old right now. Fun!

small world.

My hubby is working in Redding and commutes home on weekends. He HATES the heat there. It is unreal what a small world it truly is! I met one person here i grew up 20yrs later. And so many people from where I used to live or who used to own the house I bought 10 years later. We moved up from Bakersfield, so I know how the power bills get. I love it here to.
