Just hatched out about 17 (so far) little chickies from a mixed batch of eggs. Some of them seem a little off from what I was thinking so I probably have them all mixed up. Any thoughts on my guesses? The eggs are supposed to be: Cuckoo Maran, Blue Splash Maran, BLRW, Light brahma, Cochin, blue orp.

Here goes:
BLRW?

Cochin? (only one this color with fuzzy legs, and I have only one cochin egg)

Cuckoo Maran?

Blue Orp - pretty sure on this one:

Light Brahma?

Now here's the weird one.I know one of the 'blue splash maran' eggs hatched and another one that's in the bator is a greyish color. However, I have this one orangey chick. Is this one of them? I know SOMETHING hatched from that egg.

I think 2 is cochin, 3 is definitely CM, 4 is Blue Orp.

The Blue Splash Marans would have feathered feet. I hatched out a Blue Marans and the blue is very pronounced.

Well what the heck is that orange chick? and where is my blue Splash maran? hahaa. I have a lot of chipmunk looking chicks that I thought were the BLRW. I'll go check now and see if any of them have feathered feet!

Two more of the maran's just hatched and they are definitely lighter in color.
 
Ok, THIS one could be the blue splash maran, yes? It looks a lot like the brahma but it's grayer. Then a top view of orange chick - maybe a variation on the BLRW?

You have your cochin and light brahma mixed up. Light brahmas should be a yellowish color. And you last one does look like it could be BLRW.
