Breed

The person who bought them from mentioned they may be Olive Eggers.

All black a lot of iridescent feathers.

First and third pic are the same chick.

It's hard to say. There are a lot of different breeds that could possibly go into the making of an olive egger.

Olive Egger isn't a breed, its a type that is characterized by laying olive green eggs. If it is an olive egger, than as said above, many different breeds can go into the making of them.

It’s hard to tell if it has a single comb or not.

I guess I should be asking... do they look like any certain breed? I mentioned olive egger because after we picked them out the man we bought them from mentioned they may be olive eggers.

Yes, single comb

 

[Brahma Chicken5000]

Yes, single comb

I believe it’s an Australorp.

Olive Eggers are typically made from crossing cream legbar, easter egger or ameraucana to welsummer or marans. So the looks can be quite varied, though black is a common OE color.

I agree with @Brahma Chicken5000 on this one. The chick has pinkish toes... I also think its an Austrolorp.

They look pea combed to me.
