Yeah, sorry I didn't notice that.

I don't think Cackle has dorkings so I guess I'm leaning towards Welsummer.
The partridge rock.... DUH. I'm so slapping myself in the forehead over that one. I was wracking my brain trying to figure it out!
Several of the possible RIR/Buckeyes do have pea combs but they aren't quite the same as the pictures of cackle stock so I wasn't really sure. The variations of some of these breeds is just mind boggling!
Some of them are single comb but they don't look even remotely close to the RIRs I got in the same batch that were marked RIR. Also, these chicks are LITTLE. Not bantam, but just really thin and spry. They stand almost like a sparrow. Is that a game bird trait or aseel or something similar? Cackle has a lot of game bird type breeds.
I also have a lot of super fluffy gray/silver/blue chicks, and one that is gray with PEACH in it and it's feathering out PEACH. Not pink, or gold, literally PEACH. Any guesses? Some of my gray ones have pea or rose comb (I can't tell this small) and some have single comb. I think they might be spitzhauben and hamburgs.



Side note : How can you NOT love this little guy??



I need to get more Easter Eggers. I love those stinkin beards.

The black one that has the white, yellow, and brown on its head is a silver laced wyandotte.

After a closer look, I believe that they are actually Silver Duckwing Leghorns. Because they have a more silverish feathering rather than the light brown feathers of a Welsummer.

Cackle doesn't have silver duckwing leghorns.... they have silver duckwing phoenix....could it be that? LOL you can obviously see a lot that I can't, because I was like "Oh brown chipmunk stripes... this must be... one of 100 possible chickens. Screw this." hahaha

Could the one that is yellow with a few spots be a California White?
I have 2 that looked just like that.
Great layers of large white eggs.

Oh yeah, now I remember, another breed of chicken that looks similar to the silver duckwing Leghorn is the Silver Duckwing Pheonix. I don't really visit the Cackle hatchery site a lot.
