OK, so I know pics are REALLY helpful, but didn't think to snap one at the time. Went to TSC and they had Australops as their breed of the week. They were black with white like the ones I got previously- no problem there.
However, there was a different bin that had little buff colored chicks in it- mouthy little bunch. They all had black beaks and black legs (didn't see the bottoms of feet, but the legs, feet & toes were solid black- NO SIGN. We asked everyone what they were, as I had never seen that breed. No one knew and they couldn't find the invoice from the hatchery.
Can we narrow down what they might be- they were too young to check the wing/tail growth but too old to feather sex. Would like to go back and maybe get some, but would like to have a good guess at what they are or at least what they aren't.
White Australops?
