I bought my first chicks from tractor supply, we were supposed to have 3 Brahamas, 2 cinnamon queens and 2 starlights. I think I may have only gotten one starlight but I’m honestly not sure. I’d love some help identifying them if possible. Also any clue to how old they may be? I’ve had them for one week personally. Thanks

Welcome to the site! They sure are cute, but this is tough. I think there are two CQs, they have racing stripes down their backs and eye makeup - the one with darker eye markings I do not think is a CQ. I’m not great with other breeds, I just know the CQs bc I have some lol but I think Brahmas have feathered feet, do you have any with feathered feet?

I would bet they’re all around 1 week old, maybe 9 days or so. When they’re delivered to the stores, they’re usually 2 day old chicks, but if they were at the store a bit, they could’ve been a few days older.

I have three with feathered feet! I thought they might have been the CQ's, but I was honestly just guessing. Thank you so much for helping to clear that up a bit, that means if you're correct I did get only one Starlight.

You’re welcome! So we know the 3 with feathered feet are brahmas, then the two with lighter eye markings are cinnamon queens, what colors are the two left?
