I have received a package of 10 chicks this morning. This is a "Hoover's Hatchery Live Rare Standard Package Chickens" order that was placed through TSC. There seems to be two breeds included. This is my first go at having chickens, so I wanted to get an expert's opinion on the matter or at least give some of you the opportunity to have some fun with it.

Please let me know what you think.

I recently got this same package from TSC. My chipmunk chicks are cream legbars, and one is even an old English game bantam! I was not expecting that one. :lau
Oh shoot! haha. Thanks for the info. One does seem smaller than the others. However, their patterns are very similar.
 
I'm beginning to think that these are cream legbars and golden comets. What do you all think? Order was made for pullets.
 
Okay, it has been a couple weeks. I assume it's still too early to tell the exact breeds. Anyways, here are some updated pictures. Can you decipher what these pullets are?

It’s now four weeks. I think that we have a cream legbar here. There’s a crest showing up, single comb, and yellow legs.

This chick has always had muffs and her legs are more blue/green colored. I’m assuming this is an Easter egger. Are there any other possibilities?

Lastly, this chick seems to be a golden comet or starlight green egger. Is it still to early to decipher the breed? Is there any other option?
