Here's a better picture. I'm only asking about the little guy. I'm sure he's a rooster and he was born at the beginning of March so he's about 3.5 months old. They all are actually, I got them within a week of each other. I'm just curious if anyone can identify his breed/color because I've looked all over the internet and the closest I can assume is Old English Bantam...Not sure though.

Updating with some of my young chicks, just looking for educated guesses as they grow so I can keep directing my research. I think half the fun is in learning about different breeds! Y'all have been a wealth of knowledge here. :)

Just noticed 5 toes on this standoffish, white baby, maybe a sultan?

Small, compact body, skittish, BO bantam perhaps? Cornish?

Rough and rowdy, my biggest surprise in the box. Still considering Sumatra as none of the other obviously long-legged breeds were in stock when I made my shipment.

The black is a sumtra, the feathered feet one is a white cochin
 
Swedish Flower is considered a "rare breed" at MPC and the poster got the rare breed assortment. That calico look screams Swedish Flower to me.

here are a couple of newer pictures of the two mystery chickens, one that is darker and one that is very light (the third to last picture is the lighter chicken with an ancona of the same age):

Hello! I posted about a month asking what kind of chicken I had, but it was a little too soon to tell. So here I am back now that the chicken is 8 weeks old and pretty much all feathered out. I hope you can tell me what breed and even if you think he's a rooster or hen. Thank you! Another thing is that he is still smaller than the rest of our chickens and so fast ,if that helps any.
