Do you know what breed this chick is?

I agree with MGG with Easter Egger.

The list really helped. Do you know what all of the others are? The dark brown striped ones are Brown Leghorns.

Yes

Yes

Yes, I knew they were brown leghorns. I have a hen that I got as a chick last summer. She’s a “wild” girl. I’m hoping that these three will be a little tamer. I would have rather had some of the other breeds that the seller was offering, but my husband can’t resist the “chipmunks.”
I’m happy to have an EE, though, to add a little color variety to the eggs my girls lay. I am hoping that the pale yellow chick is something more interesting than a white leghorn.

No, not good husband! I have 14 hens, and two roosters. And last week, I purchased two seven-weekers who have turned out to be cockerels, not the pullets they were advertised as. I was NOT wanting chicks. But they are cute, so what can you do?

I'm also a little out of control this year. I ordered 15 chicks, 2 of which are straight run, and one of which is a rooster on purpose, which I know is a bad idea, but I wanted a bielefelder. And then they throw in that free bonus chick, which I apparently can't say no to. And then the farm store near me had Black Copper Marans, which I haven't been able to get... so I got two... and one is looking like... a rooster.

I try not to keep more than one at a time...

Haha! You'd better start building an extra coop, lol!

Can you post pic of the lighter chick?

I love roosters! My two roosters are brothers, and they’re Dutch Bantams (or mostly). They get along with each other, and their smaller size is easier on my hens (all full-size breeds). But the two cockerels, which are looking like EEs, are precious! They are out with the others all over the yard during the day, but come to our patio door when they want in to eat or when it’s time to roost. It’s going to be difficult to re-home them. We’re already attached! I am hoping that the new chicks were sexed accurately, although the seller said he’ll make a switch if any turn out to be cockerels.
