 |
|
I bought a mixed lot of chicks from an auction, and they really are a mixed bunch! I think I have 3 pullets out of the 10, but I have no idea what breeds they are. Can anyone help me identify them? Thanks!
 - especially interested to know what the brown chick is in the bottom left hand corner 
I also have these 3 young cockerels that, I was told at purchase, were Bantams. I have their 5 sisters and mother as well. I am looking to sell the cocks, or maybe keep one as a show bird, but I keep being asked what breed they are and all I know is that they are Bantams lol (can you tell I'm a complete novice??)
If anyone has idea as to the breed, please let me know.
Thank you for your help!
Kim

| I fear the answer to what breed is Oddlots, and the same for the cockerels. Not the answer you want, but normally if a bird is of a specific breed, the seller will say so as it can improve the price. |

I think Henwife is correct. 
The speckely chicks look like they may have cuckoo Maran in them & possibly the brown one may have Welsummer, but...your guess is as good as mine, really!
No idea about the young cockerels though.  |
