First Chicks; help identifying breeds?

[Rhendera]

I paid around $8.00 for my Lavender Orpingtons at Hoover. Much cheaper than the average I was seeing at 15.00 to 20.00 dollars. Granted they are not from some fancy breeder but I don't care they are my pets who give me eggs. My Lavender Roo is very Handsome I will upload a picture soon. I put some eggs in the incubator today, 42 to be exact. First time ever trying to hatch chicks. They will be mixed if they hatch. I also have one hen setting on some eggs in the coop. My breeds I have are Black and White Jersey Giants, Buff and Lavender Orpingtons, Midnight Majesty Marans, Dominique, Speckled Sussex, Easter Egger, and Buckeye. I have 4 Roos, L Orpington, Buckeye, B Jersey Giant and Midnight Majesty Marans.

I paid $80 for 12 chicks, she ended up giving me a discount because I was so enthusiastic about the chicks, I think. They were listed as $10 Lav Orp, $6 Silverudd's Blue, and $6/chick Ameraucanas. I attached a pic from one of their Ameraucana birds that I took from their Facebook page. Looks like an Ameraucana to me - but again, I'm a novice at ID'ing birds!

Yes looks like a Ameraucana.

When your chicks feather out more posts some more pictures and then people can fine tune what breeds they are.

#1 Silverudds Blue, splash(hen?)
#2 lavender orpington
#3 Ameraucana, blue (?)
#4 Silverudds Blue, splash (I'm thinking this might be a roo... Time will tell!)
#5 lavender orpington
#6 Ameraucana (blue or black?)
#7 Silverudds Blue (?), splash. Have a hunch might be a hen.
#8 Ameraucana, black (?)
#9 lavender orpington
#10 Ameraucana, black (?) very sweet chick, also one of the smallest.
#11 Silverudds Blue (?) Splash (?)

My guesses right now. Some sprouted tail feathers today. I'm not good at IDing colours yet but that's what I think I'm seeing.

Well I'm now proficient enough to recognize what chick is what breed so I got that going for me the older chick is quite likely a hen, one of the younger swedish Isbars is probably a Roo (wattles are starting and the comb is getting bigger and redder by the day... Still tiny though) especially compared to the older hen (2 weeks older and she's just now starting to show some development of her wattles, same as the 'roo' chick that is 2 weeks younger.) or does it happen some just develop way later / earlier than others?

One of the Ameraucana chicks just started showing some speckles on his breast... Don't think that's breed standard, though? Can I get some input on that?

All in all absolutely loving having chicks

This was the older chick last Wednesday, pretty sure this one is a Hen. Don't have any pictures more recent than this one... Lots of videos, though.
