I got half a dozen chicks at tractor and supply recently and we forgot to ask what breeds we got! We think the black ones (the first picture) is a barred rock since it has a white dot on it's head and the feathers on its wings look similar to that of a barred rock. Now the picture of the white ones (Second picture) is the breed that we have no idea what it is. It's most likely a pretty common breed since its from TAS, but who knows. IF anyone thinks they know what the breeds are feel free to comment and ask if you want some more pictures. Thanks!

Black chicks with the white spot on the head are indeed barred Rocks. The white chicks are really too young to tell...the most likely from TSC is a white leghorn, but a white Rock isn't impossible.
 
KK, I was just thinking her black chick could be a Black Sex Link roo too..knowing Tractor Supply's stellar record when it comes to knowing what they have and keeping the right birds in the right bins (note my sarcasm) lol!
 
The white chick might be a Tetra Tint? I think they are a cross between a Rhode Island male and a Leghorn female? I bought some too and mine look a lot like that.
