Whiting True Blue Chat Thread!

[emrya]

so my girls came today- out of our 18 chicks I have successfully identified all, even the mystery chick, but the difference between the 2 Ameraucana and 2 WTB is impossible so far. Anyone have suggestions? I'll take some pics tonight and post.

One nice thing about the WTG is they are all buff to red colored, so that one was easier to spot.

Yay! I have 2 white pullets with buff heads, 1 splash looking pullet, 1 brown and 1 barred-brown. I'll post pics when they get a little more feathered.

That I've identified, at least.

Ok so I believe the buff and chocolate colored chicks are the whiting blues, the red is the whiting green

I have 2 splash girls

3 of these buff and white chicks (they're the "chocolate" ones)

The brown barred pullet

And I've got like 5 of the classic ee colored ones..."partridge" or similar to it, but this girl is a blue partridgey color and the sweetest one of the bunch!!! I've nicknamed her Twindle. She's so calm and will let me touch her chest if I have treats.

I need to do some more detective work to see who exactly is laying what, but I think one of my WTB may have started laying!

The two yellow/buff ones look like my WTBs when they were babies.

One is starting to get a speckled chest, I will try for four week pictures tonight!

What do yours look like now?

Wait, whatttt. I have 3 pullets that look like this, that I thought were RIR/Game x Silver Laced Wyandotte mixes! Crazy! I have one older pullet of the same cross that looks very similar to the younger three...that's why I was thinking they were my own mixes not the Whiting True Blues. Can't wait to see what they lay

So here we are at 4.5 weeks. Pretty sure the solid cream is a roo, chipmunk/partridge is the wt green.
