Extra Chicks - What Breed

[mlanyi4]

Hello!
Got two extra chicks with my order. I’m thinking Plymouth barred rock. Anybody have an idea? Thanks

A picture of it's back and feet would be helpful. My first thought was Cuckoo Marans but it can be a little hard to tell at this point.

Lots of possibilities, including black sex link cockerels. Hopefully not, though.

Some more photos - possibly Australorp?

No, not Australorp. They don’t have white on their heads. I'm still leaning toward Cuckoo Marans. Thank you for the pictures.

Barred Rocks or Cuckoo Marans.

Barred Rocks or Cuckoo Marans.

Barred rocks have yellow legs and cuckoo should at least have feathering on their feet's my guess is black sex link

The one with more white on his head seem to be a barred rock

Unless they are French Cuckoo Marans, they will not have feathered legs.

2x. Most Cuckoo Marans you get from the Hatcheries are the clean legged variety.

On this chick, the reason why I'm saying Cuckoo Marans is because how the spot on its head looks. On the Barred Rock, the spot is often smaller and more contained to the top of their head. On the Cuckoo Marans, the spot can be bigger and run down its head like how it is with chick. Every chick can be different, but often it's that way.
