need help identifying chick breed

For the brown one, what color was the egg he hatched out of and where did you get the egg from?
it was a normal white egg and i got it from my father’s friend who has several different breeds and mixed breed chickens. honestly never expected it to hatch since i was using a heat lamp but i’ve added a pic of the egg before it hatched but it has a red tint i due to the heat lamp

the brown patterned one is the mixed breed i hatched.. there one can you see in the same pic behind the brown one is a black and white one came from tsc (it’s kinda hard to see it lol) …i’ve added some more pic. hope that helps!!
The brown one would just be considered a mix then.
I'm not convinced the black and white ones are mottle javas. Though they do have little spots of white, they should really have more than that. Also, their legs look very dark. I would wait a few weeks and then repost some more pictures in natural lighting.

yes, although he would be considered a mix breed i would like to know if anyone has an idea of what breeds his parents might be.

That's really impossible to tell at this age. You could try posting again when he's older and fully feathered, but even then I can't guarantee that anyone could guess his mix. If you could get a list of possible parents though, that would help narrow it down.

i figured i’d have to wait a while longer but the man i got the egg from has americanas and silkies. he has other but i don’t know what they are. my dad thinks he’s part americana because he has a muff and beard.

I was actually going to guess that he might have some silkie in him. I would say it's very likely then that he is an EE/silkie mix.
