Just received this "assorted rare breed" and would love help!

Thanks.
How about a Blue Amercaucana???  I have been studying chick pictures and I think possibly that is a fit?  We got a Black Copper Marans with this group and that one looks different and was pretty easy to identify as the Marans.
what kind of comb does it have? I can't tell in the picture, but it looks like it has a rose comb. If it does, you have a Dominique.

chickenlvr2013 - thanks for the reply! I have no clue what kind of comb she has. I can't see anything. I just googled combs and it looks like it might take a week or so to start growing in. She is only 3 days old, so that might explain why I can't see it yet! Maybe I have to just be patient. I hope she is a Dominique as they are gorgeous!

They are gorgeous! I have 11 dom chicks right now. But you said it was relatively larger than the other chicks? That would lead to jersey giant. But since we are stumped on this one, we will have to wait until it's wing feathers start popping out in a couple days.

Dominiques have a white spot on the top of the head, I don't see a white spot on that chick.

Looks a whole lot like my Black Ameraucauna chick (definitely not a Blue Ameraucauna, they are light gray as tiny babies).

Wouldn't a Dom have a white spot on its head? And a Jersey Giant has yellowish tips on the wings and belly. It might help people if you can get a shot without holding it, I know they're quick though.
