We had a bad hatch this year under a new broody hen so after only ending up with two chicks I went to the local feed store to see what they had. I ended up coming home with 12 chicks: one naked neck, 3 crested chicks, and 8 random bantams. The feed store gets all their chicks from Ideal Poultry so I checked their website but didn't have much luck. I think I might know what a few of them are but I thought I'd check with my fellow Backyard Chicken peeps to see if ya'll might have any ideas about what breeds I ended up with. Thanks!!!

This is my best guess but I'd love some other input:
1. Golden Sebright (super tiny chick)
2. Mottled Bantam Cochin
3. White Crested Black Polish
4. Buff or Red Bantam Cochin
5. Buff or Red Bantam Cochin
6. White Crested Blue Polish
7. Bantam Dark Brahma?? It has feathered feet
8. Bantam Buff Brahma
9. Silver Sebright? This one has clean legs
10. Bantam Light Brahma
11. Golden Laced Polish

I was REALLY hoping for some D'uccle chicks but I think I struck out.
 
This is what I just got from the hatchery. She said this is her best guess and of course, not set in stone!

Chick #1 Gold Sebright

Chick #2 Blue/black Cochin or black frizzle

Chick #3 white crested black

Chick #4 if it has 5 toes feathered legs sultan

Chick #5 buff cochin

Chick #6 White Crested blue

Chick#7 silver penciled cochin? Maybe brahma?

Chick #8 not sure

Chick #9 silver sebright

Chick #10 if feathered leg light brahma

Chick #11 Gold laced polish
 
Chick 4 I'm not sure if I see 4 or 5 toes. Do you notice it has an extra toe on each foot compared to the rest? I don't see a crest either so maybe cochin instead of sultan.

Chick 5 does look like a buff cochin

Chick 8 is looking a lot like chick 10 the light brahma
