what kind of chicks do i have?

[byrd lady]

i bought these chicks from tsc, cant remember for sure what they are supposed to be... i think one is a barred rock and one is a silver laced wyndotteand another is a california white, the brown ones im not sure... and not sure of ages... nor sex for the larger ones... PLEASE HELP... want to be knowledgable about my own chicks... some of the pictures are hard to see but i hope i can get some help with some of these...

The color is washed out of those pictures and they are blurry, so it's hard to say anything with certainty. The chicks are also very young.

The barred one is probably a barred rock. They should have yellow legs, sometimes with some green, too.

The pale buff one could be a buff Orpington. They should have white or pinkish legs. Or maybe a buff Plymouth rock, which should have yellow legs.

I don't see a silver laced Wyandotte in your pictures. I see another barred bird that looks more like a cross or some type of layer strain.

The white could be anything from Leghorn, California white or white rock. Lots of possibilities.

I think it will be easier to tell what they are when they are older and all feathered out.

agree with Jed, It will be easier to tell when they are older, feathered out and the photos aren't all washed out -

Okay. You need to take pictures of their combs/full body/legs in natural daylight without flash. So don't do it in the evening....

thank you so very much... i am having an adventure with these chicks... i dont know for sure how old they are or anything... i think the barred rocks and the large brown ones are about 4 weeks compared to pictures i have found on the net, and the wyandottes we got about 4 days later... the really small ones we got day before yesterday...

how old do they have to be to be sure of the sex?? and the leghorn was supposed to be a california white hen... lol...

There is a white in there that has a large, punk comb. That ones a rooster.

The bigger chicks look to be about 5 weeks old.
The small ones,about 2.
Wait 2 weeks on the big ones, then post pics of their combs for the sex.
