What the heck Hatch? Updated Photos!

[dbtcowgirl]

Just for fun I am posting an update on my "What the heck" hatch. As some of you know from my previous posts my oldest son was in an auto accident a few weeks ago and I was gone with him at the children's hospital for two weeks. While I was gone the good news is LOTS of my eggs hatched....the bad news my chicken sitters have no idea what was what...so I have about 40 unknowns. I just love a good mystery! This batch is four weeks old and the possibilities include, Russian Orloff, Cream Legbar, Black Copper Maran, Standard Cochin, Liege, Svart Hona, Barred Rock, Prairie Bluebell, and EEs. 6 are barnyard mixes!
I know it's too early to know breed and gender, but I thought it would be fun to share and venture some guesses. I will update again in a few weeks!

I don't see any Swart Hona chicks.

Ahah good job that must have taken forever! Some look more cooperative than others. They are cuties I haven't had ANY of those breeds but I am feeling your barred rocks (?) in pic 2 and 18 are boys.

I don't see any Swart Hona chicks.

I just realized about 8 chicks didn't get photographed I accidentally took 2 second videos instead I have one I suspect to be a Svart because even the inside of her mouth is black.

I'm terrible I missed a bunch and took short videos instead of pics I asked them if they wanted to pose for another photo shoot and they said come back in two weeks. I agree on the little roos, some make themselves clear early on.

possibilities include, Russian Orloff, Cream Legbar, Black Copper Maran, Standard Cochin, Liege, Svart Hona, Barred Rock, Prairie Bluebell, and EEs. 6 are barnyard mixes!

Here's what I think I see:

Barred Rocks, both male
2, 18

Black Copper Marans, the feather-foot type
1, 13, 22, 25, 28, 35, 38

Cochin, Black
9, 11, 31

Cochin, not Black, maybe Partridge
32, 33, 34

Cochin with less-feathered legs, or barnyard mix
15, 16, 19 (Are 15 & 16 the same chick?)

Russian Orloff
6, 7, 23

Maybe-Orloff, but I'm less sure. Certainly not Cochin, or Barred Rock, or Cream Legbar males.
3, 10, 21, 26, 30, 39, 40
39 & 40 look very much alike--maybe the same chick?
30 & 40 are not Cream Legbar of any gender (wrong comb type)

Mix or Legbar male (Barred, but not Barred Rock or female Legbar)
4, 5 (Are 4 & 5 the same chick?)

Mix
8, 12, 20, 24

EE, Prairie, Bluebell, Liege, or mix
14, 17, 27, 29, 36, 37
(27, 36, 37 chance of being Svart Hona)

Let me know if you'd rather have them in picture-order instead of grouped by kinds--I did save the notes I made while I was going through them.

This is a great reply, I'm am going to try to again to get pictures today and I am going to sort and number them.
