These babies are almost 4 weeks old and I'm trying to confirm what kind of chickens I have. I ordered 6 Easter Eggers and 8 assorted brown layers. I know which ones are the Easter Eggers. The others I need help with. I think the red ones are rhode island reds? The black with white spots are maybe barred rocks? The black one, possibly an australorp? I've got a white chick with faint black spots on her wings. Could that be a Delaware? Also, one chick that's red in the front, white in the back. No clue what she is. Thoughts?

This one looks much like my Easter Egger when she was a young chick. As nuthatch said, Easter Eggers are mixed breeds and can look much like many others. A Buff Orpington seems a likely breed but is also used in breeding Easter Eggers. I needed help identifying my white one with the golden feathers. Yours might be a Buff Orpington or an Easter Egger.
