Let's play: guess the breed because I sure cant!

#1: Could it be cream legbar?

Updated pics... I mightve missed some.

Chicken 1:
400


Chicken 2:
400


Chicken 3:
400


Chicken 4:
400


Chicken 5:
400


Also I bought some buff orpingtons. 50 cents each!:
400


Figured out this one's a Rhode Island red:
400


And my original pullets (I think theyre Isa Browns) are getting big:
400


So.... any new ideas?

I will stick with my original guesses... however, the Brahma looks like a Light Brahma. The partridge/BBR/whatever chicks are still too young to be certain--Light Brown Leghorn or Welsummer most likely.

I think what you call a Rhode Island Red is not a Rhode Island Red, not even hatchery quality RIR should have those white feathers coming in. I would guess it's a Dixie Rainbow, Pioneer or similar.

Any update on the suspected Legbars?
 
Okay... so not a RIR but im not sire about the others you mentioned... Meyer doesn't have any of those.

Chicken 5... I think... in my most recent post is the one I think may be a legbar. I have no idea what they look like mid growth. And chicken 3 is looking like a speckled sussex. And those 2 are really similar at this age.

Yes, Speckled Sussex, Welsummer and Brown Leghorn start out similar enough. However, the Sussex should have pink/white shanks while the others will have yellow. Speckled Sussex will also have white feathers come in on the breast.
