This is Maybelline...she is a RIR. She looked so much like yours as a chick. She has the same chimpmunk stirpes and same coloring and same eyeliner (hence the name Maybelline). Hope I helped some.

Not to be rude but that is not a RIR, not with the eye pattern and the chipmunk pattern. At the bottom of the page are what RIR chicks look like http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry/CGP/Reds/BRKRIR.html Also, this is what my RIR looked like as a chick:

I still think it could be an Orloff or a mix!

Now that I look at it, it's quite possible. But my first guess will be EE, then Orloff.

Ok, I absolutely SWEAR, SWEAR, SWEAR, Scouts Honor, truly & TRULY, that I was going to call her "Maybel", short for Maybelline!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I figured if was a Roo, could change to "Max Factor"!! For the same reason (looks like eyeliner/makeup!!).... Revlon just didn't have the same ring to it, and don't like L'Oreal 'cause they used to do a lot of needless animal testing... (!!!!!! Great Minds Think Alike????????!!!!!!!)
I almost died when I saw this post!!!!
I will find out if there are any Orloffs (or EEs!) in the crew, that may have unexpectedly laid an egg(!).
The one thing that I DID notice when looking at chick pix, is that although EEs have VERY similar coloring & cheek muffs, there is something about the BEAK that looks different to me; my chick seems to have a "lighter" beak than most of the pix I've seen... not in coloring but more in "heavyness" maybe???? Don't know how to explain it, hers is maybe narrower at the base and/or a bit shorter???? Know EEs can vary, though, so maybe they don't all have heavier beak. ????

It looks like you got 5 EE chicks, 1 black rose comb, and i dont know about the other 3.

I know for sure that the black one is a Serama, the 3 yellow ones are Leghorns (POSS leghorn mixes, but look pretty pure), and 4 are Silkie mixes (NOT sure what they are mixed with, though!!!!). Right now the "Mystery Chick" is the fuzzface with the chipmunk stripes
