I'm curious what others think these 10 chicks are. They were gifted to me by a friend who order a hatchery surprise special of 40 chick pullets.
From looking at the breeds on their website I think 5 are black Australorps and 2 are welsummers. The other 3 I'm stumped.

I also would appreciate tips on integration. I have a flock of 10 six month old chickens already (2 roos & 8 hens)

It's pretty early to tell with these. I can say that two of the stripy ones appear to be Easter eggers rather than Welsumers. One has fluffy cheeks, and the other seems too dark to be a Welsumer. The pale chicks could be buff Orpingtons or red sex links, but there are other possibilities. I would let them all feather out some before trying to guess breed.
