Guessing chick mixes!

My broody hatched three little adopted babies last weekend. Here is what I know.

Two of them hatched from cream legbar eggs. Dad is either a black australorp, white wyandotte, or RIR.

The third came out of a light brown egg that was either from a white wyandotte or a RIR. Baby daddy options are: RIR, black australorp, or white wyandotte.

So what mixes am I looking at here? I’m confused about how similar chick 3 is to the first two when I know it doesn’t have a cream legbar parent.

You can cross off the black australorp. No offspring from it would be chipmunk striped.
Idk what the white Wyandotte is carrying under the white but if a Wyandotte is the parent the chick should have a rose type comb. That's unless the Wyandotte has a single comb or carries a gene for it.
I'm going with RIR all the way around.

Same colored chicks with mine! The parents could be a combination of: rir (roo only), golden laced Wyandotte, buff brahma. I noticed the chicks don't have feathered legs tho. And one chick has a pee or rose comb the others have single row Combs.

So they are either Rhode Island Red Xs Gold Laced Wyandotte or Rhode Island Red Xs Buff Brahma and all of them but one have single combs?
