I have a batch of fifteen chicks from Meyer that are 6 weeks old and supposed to be all females. Looking for help confirming some things as a few have rather pink combs and feather patterns that are confusing to me.

I ordered one of each breed and then four EE or Olive Egger Mixes.
Barnevelder - BBS Ameraucana - BBS Red Wyandotte - Black Australorp - Black Copper Maran - Cream Legbar - Red Laced Wyandotte - Speckled Sussex - Salmon Favorelle - Welsummer - Swedish Flower

Apologies in advance for all the pictures!

All pullets minus #2. He's an Easter or Olive Egger. Your potential BBS Ameraucana is likely seven. Is it just dirty or is that its feather pattern?
Feather pattern, I always think she's dirty too lol so that's one I kept going back and forth about for the BBS Ameraucana, she does have 5 toes (they're kind of fused together).
 
Only cockerel I see right now is the "Ameraucana" but he is also not an Ameraucana.

I agree, the ameraucana isn't one... and is likely a cockerel. And an easter egger. I'm also suspicious of the splash laced wyandotte. The comb is awfully pronounced and wide for a pullet.

Thanks y'all! Wasn't sure on that guess the reds and blues were throwing me, but I guess now looking there are more signs that I should have seen 🙃

Ahhh didn't see the toes. I honestly don't think you received an Ameraucana. Perhaps number 10 could just be a very poor quality one but I think she might even have a crest so I'm doubtful...
