Ya, those are WAY younger than 9 weeks. i would say the first one it like 3 weeks....

And Camelot Farms
is right the third one is a red- sex link
 
I got some of these same chicks from Murray McMurray.
The chick on top is definitely a blue laced red wyandotte. Ours looked exactly like that. And she always looked like she was behind the other chick breeds in terms of maturing. Smaller, scragglier. She has gotten better looking since then!
The white and black chicken, I don't know. We didn't get one of them.
The third one we did get. The white with copper marks. In the catalog, I was thinking the Phoenix hen looked like her. But the Phoenix hens on-line look nothing like the Murray version! I saw a photo on-line of a hen that looked just like ours, but she had feathered legs. I think she was a buff laced cochin, or buff laced brahma. But there's nothing in the Murray catalog that is called Buff-laced ANYTHING! Regardless, I see your chick has yellow legs. Ours has green legs. Maybe they're NOT the same? Did you figure out what the one in the 9th photo with her is? If you ever figure her out, pass it along. It may help me solve my riddle.
Some chickens sure are ugly in their early months! The ugly ones always seem to blossom.

This is my BLRW at 8 weeks. It seems to me that they are slow to develop. I just put them out in the coop with the rest of the 8 and 9 week olds yesterday. There is a big size difference.
 
I got an assorted 40 chickens from Murray. My blue-laced wyandotte is still smaller than the others, and they're all almost 4 months old. Don't worry. She'll look really nice soon!
