Coloring looks like the BLR Wyandottes I just hatched, except none of mine have a white spot on the head. And the comb is wrong for a Wyandotte. Can you tell from the breeds the hatchery sells what you might have gotten that would be blue/maybe with some lacing? Or ask the breeder?

Looks like my Norwegian Jaerhon as a chick, I got one last year from Ideal. Sadly this is the only pic I could find of them as chicks, but she is the one in the top right of the box.
