Someone on here advertised a dozen SLW eggs and because I really wanted those AND I had good dealings with her in the past, I purchase the eggs, at a good price, mind you.

She threw in 3 bantam eggs for free, which I appreciated. They hatched on 5/29 and they are NOT all SLW, and needless to say, I'm not happy.

Can someone help me with identifying these? Oh, just to be clear, 1 bantam, and 3 standard sized eggs were infertile so I ended up with 11 chicks. Two are bantams and i know that.

My camera just isn't showing it well enough but the chickmunk looking chicks are actually shades of brown. My husband is in NY with the good camera and I only have the crappy one.

Thanks!

the one with the stripe down the back, and a strpie off the eye (the ones I think you are calling chipmunks) appear to be light brown leghorns.
I am not sure what the others are.
 
I would hold off tille you see them more feathered out. SLW will change colors alot before final color. Those chicks do look like SLW chicks since they are black and white and some yellow. You will see different patterns on chicks so I would wait to see how they develope first.
