The stripped one (goose butt, dont ask) has peach / cream colored legs and nails. I suspected she wasnt a blackstar...as a matter of fact she was an extra chick. I ordered 25 hens and 2 rooster. I ended up with 27 hens (including the surprise breed) and 3 roosters.

She looks like she could be a Gold Laced Wyandotte or a Welsummer.

Aren't they usually roosters when they are extras?

I got 1 extra black sex link, 4 extra hens, and the mystery chicken. I emailed welp a picture and they said what I anticipated: Too young to tell for sure. I looked a bunch of day old breed pictures...the closest i can tell is the golden wyandotte.

Congratulations, I got my first chicks too and it is just amazing to see them change and grow daily. You will have a blast!

It is very addicting, sounds like you have just begun. Somehow I have now ended up with more than I thought too.
