Any idea on the breed?

Ok so I was checking out more google images and it could be. One thing though, I do have a Blue Andalusian but they are no where near the same size and the Blue Andalusian has different feathers, they seem more long and narrow and the white chick is more short wide feathers. If it were a Andalusian wouldn't it be basically the same as the Blue I have just a different color ?
 
I got this little chick from Meyer 11 days ago. They ran short of some chicks I ordered and substituted a couple of black australorps, but this one doesn't look like that. To me it looks like an ancona or exchequer leghorn, but they said they hadn't added anything different.
 
Ideally, yes, they should develop similarly and at the same rate. If they had come from a breeder, then I would fully expect them to develop almost identically. But, if they are different sexes, they could develop differently. Different breeding lines could develop differently. And, one could have suffered some set back in the egg or in transit or it could have a genetic issue which is causing it to grow slower. There are a lot of factors that come in to play. Just watch how it develops and maybe post some more pics when it is older and the body shape is more defined.
 
(copy and pasted) This is a Ancona picture from a hatchery site, the chicks look a lot like that guy.

Thank you, I will deffinitly be watching him/her as it grows and will post an update in a few weeks.

Here is a pic of my Ancona as a little chick.
 
From the looks of what see you have a couple silkie chicks, one Plymouth rock chick and I don't know what the white chick is. From Ashley stark. >:>~) look at these signs side ways and you will see a chicken ;)
