Black Jersey Giant?

I purchased this chick as a black Jersey giant. It didn't look like the rest and that's why I chose it. It did not have the butter yellow neck and belly like the rest, rather it was all dark grayish black. Now that it is getting feathers, they are are getting a lot of copper on the breast and the back is black and white spots. I keep joking that I bought a Turkey! It's 3X the size of the other chicks so it really is giant but I seriously doubt it's black. Help!

Your other chicks look like bantams, so this one is just normal for a standard sized chick. A
Not a JG. Need better pics for further identification.
Just took new pics. The other chicks are lavender Orpington, sapphire gem and black frizzle. Chest feathers are copper with tiny black polka dots
