any idea what breed these are?

and this one

cheers anhbuc
yea the white`ish one does look alot like my old gold laced orpington shape, the head does too
so thatl be interesting to see what she looks like when grown
fingers crossed there both layers if the little nodules not a indication of sex although i was kinda looking forward to it being a cockerel so i could fertilise some eggs for next year.
il just keep a eye out for a free cockerel when the time comes

there certainly enjoying themselves and loving the propper food instead of kebab and other junk they were being fed, they are both pretty tame though, the brown one loves sitting on my shoulder, no doubt il be adding a h to the sitting soon enough lol

Oh they are lovely. It makes me so sad and very angry when I hear of this kind of thing.

 Glad they will be better looked after now, no animal deserves to suffer.

its a load of cods wollop for your average backyard keeper, but its to do with dodgy farming practices - BSE, SCRAPIE etc.

Yeh, DEFRA  etc allow all other kinds of things to go on, pump animals for human consumption full of goodness knows what but give your hens a bit of cabbage stalk from sunday dinner prep and you're shot at dawn.

Not too sure what the little grey one is but the boy looks like a RIR to me.
