I recently got a few chicks from TSC, apperently there was a mix up at the hatchery. TSC had no idea what breed they are & the hatchery had no records of the chicks. They sold them as "Mystery Chicks" they all are solid black, black skin, black legs, clean legged, & have an extra toe on each foot. Any help would be awsome!
 
What are you trying to post from? If you are using the mobile app I think there is a problem with posting pictures. I can't.

Are they bantams? If they are black skinned with 5 toes then sounds like Silkies to me.

It certainly sounds like they are silkies that lack leg feathers. What are their combs like? My silkies are large fowl but I think in America they are almost all bantam size.
 
I think they are but I'm not 100% sure

Silkie babies

Yes, RuleysFarm, you are correct. They are all bantam size here.
