Got to love fall chick days at Atwoods. Just stopped in to pickup some adult chicken feed and looked in the bins. To my surprise I saw in the straight run bins 7 Egyptian fayoumis. I grabbed them and then 5 more that I'm not sure what breed on. 3 of some grayish chicks with brown stripes and 2 sparrow looking. Here are some pics:

The others could also be leghorns, phoenix, or several others in addition to the ones suggested by junebuggena. You'll most likely have to wait until they are 1-2 months old to determine breed on those.
 
These could be Welsummers, Speckled Sussex, or Easter Eggers.


I believe they are too light colored for welsummers, and they do not have and muffs or beards for Easter Eggers ( I hatch a few of these out naturally every year). I'm thinking silver duckwing Phoenix.

As for the other ones I was thinking some kind of wyndotte. Had thought Columbian at first.

I've got some clean faced Easter Eggers. The fluffy cheeks are not guaranteed.
