Any chicken experts?

We picked up chicks from a small local feed store on April 9th and we got 2 Barred Rocks and (we were told) 4 Easter Eggers. It appears that for sure one and maybe two of those Easter Eggers are something else entirely. The feed store had previously carried Silver Laced Wyandottes, Welsummers and Black Australorps but we were told they were out. Obviously chick identification gets a little fuzzy when multiple varieties are housed together! Any guesses as to what we got? Individual shot is of the most obvious outlier and in the group shot, the other is in the left corner with an Easter Egger on the far right for reference.

Easter Eggers are basically mutts with a blue egg gene. They can be any color and lots of patterns. These have hen patterning that looks like they got their blue gene from a Cream Legbar.
They look like Easter Eggers to me, and pretty ones, too.

Not an expert, but that's a pretty EE pullet. I say it probably too often but black and white EEs are my favorite!
