what sex are our chickens?

[Primary school hatching]

Toffee is probably an Ancona. Ooh, no, Minorca. Aussies tend to be on the heavy side, these guys look pretty skinny. I think all the black ones are Minorca's. Charlie is definitely silver sebright, but I think Woody is a buff rock.

And Quaver..... I think probably buff rock. Are her feet yellow or more olive? They look more greenish in the pic but that might just be a shadow.

Orangey yellow feet I would say.

She's probably a buff rock then.

Charlie is a silver sebright, Quaver cud be a buff orpington, the black and white ones (i think) are austrolorps except Toffee.....he has feathered feet.......so.....
Woody cud be a lavender orpington.......am i correct? did u hatch these yourself? they are gorgeous

We are not sure on the exact breeds, we hatched them with our class of 4/5 year olds

I think they're all mixes. Very pretty! The darker ones probably have Australorp, and the silver laced is a Silver Sebright or mix of Sebright.

I think the buff ones are Buff Plymouth Rock and the dark ones are Ancona and ardenner and the grey one is wyandotte I think.
Quaver has gone really sleepy today and isn't eating or drinking though, what should we do?
Thanks

Was Quaver ok yesterday? What does her poop look like? What feed do you have them on? What kind of set up do you keep them in ie their brooder?

 

[Primary school hatching]

He has perked up a bit and has started feeding again. We have a guinea pig cage with a ceramic lamp. The chicks go outside in a run when it's warm enough.they are on chick crumb.

Awesome! Sounds like they've got a good set up.

That's great I too use a guinea cage for the first couple of weeks before they go out to shed. As it's been pretty warm of late so maybe Quaver got a tad hot? At 4 weeks you should be able to start weaning them off the heat, they look pretty much fully feathered young birds.
