Updated pics of these four chicks at over 3 weeks old.

Zazu is a mix. Orpingtons shouldn't have leg feathering, and she also appears to have a small crest.

I also think Buttercup is a mix, as that looks a rather lot like a tall pea comb to me rather than a single comb as Orpingtons should have. All the Jubilee Orpingtons I've ever seen have been a much darker brown, too...

The other two do look like pure Orpingtons, a Lavender and a Buff.

Great call about the pea comb. Did not notice that. In that case the "jubilee" is a mix. Orpingtons do often get feather stubble so I wouldn't rule out the blue being pure yet :)

Does zazu have leg feathering? i can't tell! 🧐
 
Thanks, I didn't notice that Buttercup had a different comb-I'm still so new to this. We have ended up with so many birds that are not what they were advertised to be!
