Meyer Hatchery Chicken pics anyone??

[trsturself]

My guesses:
Ancona? Yes


olive egger: Yes


Blue? This could be a number of chicks from the rare breed assortment. It could be an olive egger, blue andalusian, blue orpington, blue americauna, or blue maran. Can you see any sign of a comb? Fluffy cheeks?


splash?
Again, could be any of the blue breeds listed above. It doesn't look like it has fluffy cheeks. My guess would be an Andalusian


black copper marans? meal maker? Does it have faint feathering on the legs? It could also be an olive egger if it doesn't have feathered legs.


the other olive egger? possibly


white marans? or meal maker I would guess this is the meal maker and probably a white leghorn. Can you see a small single comb?



golden cuckoo marans??? olive egger?? That looks like a golden cuckoo maran.

Black Australorp (4)

Rhode Island Red (4)

Golden Buff (4)

Buff Orpington (3)

Delaware (3)

Barred Rock (3) or Dominique (2) I can't tell the difference between these, yet. I think the Dominique is supposed be more cream than white. But, I have yet to see two of them next to each other that look any different!

They love the Brinsea, btw. I got two 20's instead of a 50. So far, I think it was a good decision. More flexible set up!

So adorable! And not one repeat of mine! Great choices, Kittykorat!

The black one does not have feathered legs.. but not all marans from meyer have feathered legs...
The yellow one has the wrong colored legs for a leghorn.. maybe a white rock?

True, but if it did have feathered legs then you definitely know.
Leg color isn't always a reliable test since that can change. But a white rock is definitely possible. Do you see any sort of comb yet? When we got our white leghorn it had a noticeable comb from day one.

The olive eggers are marans crossed with Americuana or legbar per the description. Mine don't have feathered legs or puffy faces. I'm still trying to figure out which is which because I ordered 2 rare marans, 2 olive eggers and 7 asst rare.

Guess it depends on if the maran parent had feathered legs or not. I think I remember reading that the feathered leg is dominant.
