I will go try to get some. I made the mistake of letting them out before I remembered I wanted to take pictures lol

I am curious too. I have a Faverolle Rooster and bought some chicks hoping for a couple of pullets for him, but they aren't indisputably light. They don't look obviously black though either. Having trouble trying to tell, and I thought all my prior thread watching had prepared me for this. HAha...
