MEGA confused! ID's GREATLY appreciated! (esp. on the Brahmas? if?)

[Roux]

Well, I got my hatchery order today & they shorted me some birds. Problem is, I can't quite figure out which ones!

Here's what I ordered:
Salmon Faverolles, gold & silver laced Wyandottes, Australorps, speckled Sussex, light & dark Brahmas, Barnevelders, barred Hollands & a single silver laced Cochin.

Here's what I got, along with my guessed based on pics I've looked up online:

1. (guessing these are the Australorps - please correct me if I'm wrong)

2. (my guess: salmon faverolles, again, please correct me!)

3.(I'm guessing these are my 2 silver-laced & 1 gold-laced Wyandottes?)

4.The "I haven't the foggiest" - feather-legged chicks (could these be my Brahmas? ARE they even Brahmas?):

5.The "I haven't the foggiest" - clean-legged chicks (I'm assuming my Barnevelders & Sussex):

Thank you so much in advance!!!!

I am HAPPY to take more pics if that helps!

1,2,and 3 are all correct I think 4 are the dark brahms and 5 are the barnvelders sorry you got shortchanged hopefully this can get worked out.

my guess on pic 4 - the bottom one is either a black or silver laced, not sure about the top

pic 5 bottom pic is speckeled sussex i'm sure of that

 

[countryboy]

their cute little chickies, where'd you get them from?

 

[LoneCowboy]

5 could be speckled Sussex. #1 is correct.

 

[countryboy]

i think #5 is barnevelder

The featherlegged chicks are Golden and Silver Laced Cochins. The clean legged ones look to be Speckled Sussex. You should check McMurray or another hatchery and look at the pics of the chicks they offer and compare.

Oh man...I was only supposed to receive ONE cochin this order, as well as 3 light & 2 dark Brahmas. I've looked on several sites including McMurray, and some of the chicks just look too similar for me to tell apart. I'm still new at this & haven't learned all the nuances that help to determine one breed from another, especially this young.

Still open to input, as I'm trying to get this straightened out on my next order!!!

#4 looks a lot like the brahma chick I had last year. I thought cochins had a lot denser feathering on the legs? To me they were a lot more "fluffy" than the other chicks.
