My thread on this order: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/25-from-welp.1494343/
I'm pretty sure that the blue chicks with the yellow wash are Production Blues and that the black ones with the headspot and white feet are their version of Cuckoo Marans (no feathers on the feet), but I have a red chick, one or more blues that are paler than the Blue Australorps and the probably Production Blues, and 4 yellow chicks with white feet, black stripes/blotches on their backs, and black spots on their heads.
Here's the red one. I'll be selling this one and whoever buys her will probably want to know exactly which red breed it is.
One of the possible lavenders.
And the yellow-with-black ones. Mottled Java? Anconas put into my Brown Layer Assortment because Ancona as a substitute was on my breed list? I didn't see any chicks in the catalog that look like these -- both those mottled breeds show much darker chicks but I don't know how much variability there is in mottled chicks.
Some group shots, in case it helps,
I'm no good at IDing downy, new-hatched chicks.
