Chick-a-doodle-doo Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) Please, no replies about how irresponsible it is not to know.. It's from a mix of eggs I got and when I ordered them I thought forum members might be helpful. Cheers.

Egluntyne Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 The pic is too small for my failing eyesight I'm afraid. Perhaps if you ask the supplier, they can hazard a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Dont worry, some people order specific eggs and still dont know what has hatched (I hatched a gold laced orpington from a 'Silkie' egg ) Sadly I cant see the pic as my work computer restricts pics but will take a look later for you Most 'unknown' chicks seem to have Silkie in them (head tufts are a giveaway) I think Silkie cockerels must be quite adept at getting in to pens that arent theirs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chick-a-doodle-doo Posted April 29, 2010 Author Share Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) thanks both I have managed to put a bigger piccy on! The mix was silkies, leghorns, cochins and orpingtons, cream legbars and naked necks. I can't remember the others.

Griffin Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 The mix was silkies, leghorns, cochins and orpingtons, I can't remember the others. In that case, does it have feathered legs? How many toes? What colour skin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 It looks like a partridge cochin to me. My big boy 'Boon' looked like that as a chickie. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
