Help with my new cluckers please

[McClucknstuff]

hi all, I got these girls yesterday and I’m told they are purebreds but the elderly lady couldn’t remember the breeds.
Her sister used to breed them and bring them to the farm once they had grown.
They are currently in quarantine and being treated for scaly leg mite.
TIA

Ps we are in Australia

The black one looks like an Australorp ~ & I think you might have some crosses in there.

The black one is a cross.
I’ve bred Australorps in the past and have buff orps now and she’s def not one.

She said something about welsumer and barnevelder

The 1st one might be a barnvelder. If they're crosses how are they pure breeds? The brownish one might be a welsumer. I'm not real good just from photos & I can't see all the legs & combs ~ but that is probably me & my glasses, not necessarily your photos.

Sorry I meant to add the black one was a cross but I was trying to figure out what she might be crossed with.
The others are supposed to be purebred although backyard quality

Ah. Ok. This chart might help. It gives leg colour & comb as well as feathering.
