2 week old chicks - were these breeds labeled right??

[Lauraj0731]

I purchased eight chicks from a feed store two weeks ago. I've added and labeled multiple pics of each chick. Probably too young to determine sex, unless anyone wants to take a guess. I'm mostly curious what breed they might be, as I know they're easily switched around or mislabeled. The bins they were in:
1 - Buff Orpington
2 - Starlight Green Egger
3 - Sapphire Gem
4 - Black Sexlink
5 - Barred Rock
6 - Easter Egger
7 - 'Americana'
8 - Welsummer

6 and 8 really stump me, I may have them backwards!

1. Buff Orpington
2 & 3. Hatchery Mixes so they can come in any color (not wrong but I'm personally not sure of a way to say they aren't what they're listed as haha)
4. It's a lot of red coming in for a Black Sex Link... although it could still totally be one : D I'd love to see her when she's older!
5. Looks like a barred rock to me! Probably a cockerel due to the light legs + large head spot, but time will tell!
6. I don't see a beard... so you may have mixed up 6 & 8 : D Welsummer could make sense (although a TON of breeds come in the chipmunk chick colors!)
7. Americana is just a feedstore term for EE, which they look like : D
8. Probably an EE while #6 is the Welsummer ^^

I think you're right about which one is the Welsummer and which one is the EE. At least the one they labeled as Americana has cheeks.

Edited cause of typo

Yeah, I agree with the above. 6 is the Welsummer, 7 is an Easter egger. 8 is maybe a Legbar based EE or olive egger.

Is it possible that #8 is a Bielefelder?

Is it possible that #8 is a Bielefelder?

Hmm I'm not sure? I don't remember that being on any of the signs but I believe they were stocked from Hoovers Hatchery.

It looks like Hoover's is carrying Bielefelders. They list them as new. https://hoovershatchery.com/bielefelder.html If that chick starts growing a lot faster than the rest, that is what it is. I got a Bielefelder and she is bigger than the other pullets her age.

So, more pics?

I am vary new to chickens but your number 6 looks just like my brown leghorn. I have 3 of them and mine are 2 months old but i got them when they were a week old.

I have a barred rock as well, your number 5. i think mine is a boy, makes me so sad cause i cant have boys where i live. he is my most loveable bird. He is fine being held and carried. My 14 year old daughter thinks its cool ow he will sit on her arm or shoulder like a parrot as she walks around.

3 is definitely a sapphire gem. We’ve had like 5 of them. They are wonderful birds.
