Good Luck waiting on Ideal it took them over two weeks to respond to me and then they couldn't ID the pictures of chickens I needed them to ID. I have BA'a and they have yellow on the bottoms of their feet and their faces are not pale as your chickens. Mine have black combs the have reddened as they have gotten older.
If you have a "Australorp" with Yellow on the bottom of the feet then it is a cross or a Black Jersey Giants.
Black Jersey Giants - should have Willow/Black legs and Yellow on the bottom of there feet.
Black Australorp - should have Black/Slate legs and Pink-ish color on the bottom of there feet.
Black Orpingtons - should have Black/Slate legs and White color on the bottom of there feet.
Note if it has Brassing or Silvering in the breast and or hackles then it could then be a Black Sex-Link
