I got these chicks about 3 weeks ago from Atwoods. I'm not too sure what breed they are. All but one has feathers on their feet. Photos are updated.

I think the ones with feathered feet are probably Cochins, in a bunch of different colors.
Buff = pale gold color
Partridge = patterns of brown and black in the feathers
Black = black feathers
Blue = gray feathers
(There are some other breeds with feathered feet, but Cochins seem to be among the most common of feather-footed chickens, so that's why I'm guessing Cochins.)


The one with no feathers on the feet looks to me like a Rhode Island Red, or perhaps a New Hampshire or Production Red (all three look pretty similar, and have similar weights and egg-laying abilities.) I suspect that one may be a male, but it's too early for me to be sure yet. That just looks like a lot of comb for a chick that young.
 
These are very similar to the ones I got about three weeks ago, also from Atwoods! I’m thinking Cochins as well, but I also posted looking for some extra eyes.
