[augiedranch]

"kidd" i think its a bantam.

i think barred rock? i dont know. what sex, and breed?
thanks guys

 

[hypnofrogstevie]

IMO. First pic girl. second pic boy

Definitely not barred rock, but I'm not sure on the breeds. The first one has feathered feet... second one could be a male, but you'll need a couple more weeks to be sure. I think ours started to crow-k (sounded like they were being strangled - they croaked!) around 6 weeks.

lol croaked? lol! thanks!
yeah, ur right.. not barred rock.. i have no idea! lol
tracter supply said they could be only buff orpington, barred rock, black austrolp, bantam, rir, blk sex link,ameraucanas...

lol thanks

I think you have 2 boys.

 

[augiedranch]

aww.. i want at least one female bantam! lol.. the other one has much less feathers on feet and not much color..

 

[Mrs MIA]

Well, I know my black australorp is all black, - maybe a black sex linked, then?
As to which the feathered bantam is, I dunno...

sorry... Possibly a cross breed, then?

 

[kaacres]

My vote is...

First photo is male Dark Brahma Bantam

Second Photo is male Black Ameraucanas (maybe)

But I am very new at this so don't take my word for it. Just my guess.

The first one cannot be a brahma, wrong comb, however it does look like a cochin, MALE. The second one looks like a black australorp, MALE. Black australorp chicks start out with white on their entire underbelly and that will change when he is completely feathered in.

Ahhh... that would be why I didn't know that.. I only have a BA hen! Although... I have a BA/Light brahma chick that is mostly black with a yellow bum... wondering if it might be male, then?
