I got some chicks from a local hatchery and don’t think I got what I asked for. I was supposed to have a mystic maran, black copper maran, blue rock, and silverlaced whandotte. 2 of the chicks are black with some complimentary copper. Another is black with some white. And there’s this one. All black. No other color. Any other types of chick besides ayam cemani that are all black? They’re about 16 days old now. The first 3 photos are of the same all black chick bc that’s the one that puzzles me the most.

No guesses on the black one other than ayam cemani. I would guess the little brown one with the tan cheeks is your Wyandotte, and the black one with the white chest should be your bcm. I've never seen a midnight maran so note sure on that one.

I figured the two that were Black and Tan/copper were the Marans! Now I’m really thrown off haha

This is might be interesting. Couple months ago my neighbor black copper maran rooster was wondering in my yard, so he ended up mating with my ayam cemani x thai pullet. In mid-April, 7 chicks hatched under my pullet. I don't know where to put this posted, but I hope you BYC like them. I have 5 black, 2 blue, and they all have dark blue skin.
