I got 8 chicks at TSC today. I know 2 are EE so I didnt picture them.
Chick 1 is 1-4
Chick 2 is 5-8
Chick 3 is 9-12
These came from a bin she said was 'pullet ameraucana'
The EE I got came from the 'straight run ameraucana' bin.
Last 4 are what they said are Barnevelder...can you confirm this for me?
I went for the Barnevelder but left w

ith 8 because the others we so cute. Lol

You have easter eggers and barnies. TSC doesn't sell true ameraucana.

Yeah i knew that they dont sell ameraucanas. But the grey and black and tan dont look like easter eggers. The black i thought maybe australorp... they were separated so something was different about them, thats why i asked what they might be. The grey is same color as my plymouth blue rocks.

@Overo Mare
Any thoughts?

Agree with Frazz. It's hard to know exactly what some chicks are while in full chick fluff. Especially when hatcheries are channeling their inner bartenders and mixing everything.

Post pics of them once they're fully feathered. That will make ID'ing much easier and more accurate.

We got a gray easter egger chick this year, photo of her at 15 weeks. It's been fun watching her grow into her colors.

This are two of my new Australorp chicks for comparison (you mentioned Australorp as a possibility).

I went digging for chick photos. Here's our tiger striped and tan easter eggers.
