help think I got ripped off

I have no idea I don't know a thing about rainbows but from our talk today they make great meat chickens and grow fast as I can say on that part to be true little guys have grown very fast and has me thinking of a pair just to see how they do

The two in the picture
It looks like americana, turken and maybe more breeds.
this is a lesson learned. You can never really trust people who sell eggs. (or give them away)
You will get stung nine times out of ten.
I once knew a lady who had those long tailed chickens. every one she hatched, she would call it a Phoenix. I kept telling her, the long tail doesn't make it a purebred Phoenix. You have another mutt. I could never convince her otherwise, . She is probably still doing it. I haven't heard from her for over ten years..
Just beware of anybody selling eggs who has more than one breed of chickens.
If you are really interested in having one particular breed, get yourself a trio of that breed and save your own eggs.
In the mean time, develop a taste for chicken soup..

As long as the buyer is fully aware that they're "barnyard mixes" or "easter eggers" and priced suitably, then OK. Though it seems the OP wanted to cross his barred rock rooster on some wyandottes - and would (will) be creating barnyard mixes of his choosing.

Yes that's my plan for the cross cause I'm working on something that I have read in my grandparents chicken notes that they was doing and if I can redo there yard would be great there hens never stopped laying and the meat was really great at the top it reads family secret cross but it is a complicated 4 way cross and I'm half way to my goal
 
Yeah I plan to do multiple breeds but currently I have a Americauna based EE over a variety of hens and I specify they ARE NOT PUREBRED a dozen times over! I even print out a sheet to show possible crosses. I will be doing purebred AMs but I dont have a full blooded roo yet. I also want to do silkies, and Delawares, and Marans lol but I haven't got all my pens set up yet so I'm holding off. A good seller will show you pics of all breeders and recent offspring and should be able to tell where they got their own breeders from.

Sounds like fun! Once you hatch your planned Barred Rock/Wyandotte cross, we'd love to see pictures once their feathers come in!
