All of these are from feed stores and I just wanted to see if they were labeled correctly and I think I might have a cockerel.

They are labeled as best as I can remember the store labeled them.

Sorry about the pictures with flash, they didn't want to stay outside for photos.

Buff Orpington



Comet



Rhode Island Red



2 Ameraucana(EE?), 2 blue Araucana/ancona?, black sexlink
 
All the older birds seem right, and yep, I think that RIR is a cockerel.

That top baby has a really odd face. Looks like a blue bird, but what kind? It's probably labeled right as an Ancona, cool that you got a blue one. I have a black and white one.

And, the other babies are Easter Eggers, your black sex link and the other Ancona.
 
The buff orp looks right, and looks like a pullet so far.

Red comet pullet

RIR - looking like a roo


Can't help you with the 5 babies, although the one in back is certainly blue.
 
The ones in the bottom that are yellow and look like they have eyeliner are Ameraucanas
and the third one is for sure a Rhode Island Red
:)
 
Thanks :-)
The anconas look darker than pictures I found online. The RIR looks lighter than pictures.
 
The black chick in the middle next to the yellows and the blue chick looks like a black australorp and the other is a black sex link. Black Sex link have that copper look on the face as urs does. And the australorp should have a little bit of white on the tip of his wings and mostly black legs and feet.
 
I should have put up better pictures. I think they have mostly yellow legs and they were labeled small. So that seems ancona. Ancona would be good for a lot of reasons. I let my wife pick them out and it seems like we have some good ones.
 
And now my wife just found the receipt. It says blue Andalusian.
 
I had to peek at them again and the legs are blackish with pink feet. So I was wrong, sorry. Andalusian looks right by what I can find.

The blue one looks like my Blue Andalusian chicks. They did not have any brown on them and didn't look like any other of your chicks.
