Need help with chick breed identification

We purchased two silver laced wyandotts and two what were labeled as Silver Lakenvelder chicks. After looking at photos online I don't think we got Lakenvelders. They are tan with a brown chipmunk stripe and brown stripe across their eyes. They were also two of the lighter colored ones out of the batch they were picked from at Shoppers. Please help me identify or guess the breed of the chicks in the photos. I do know they came from Hoovers Hatchery.

Well now I am VERY curious to see what happens because I imagine an abbreviation for Silver Leghorn COULD get misinterpreted as Silver Lakenvelder. And that would explain the labeling problem...
Yes I could also see the name getting switched pretty easy. I did talk to the feed store rep and they said the chicks did come from the hatchery labeled as Silver Lakenvelders but agreed with me that is not what they received.
 
Thank you for your input and providing photos of your babies. They do really resemble the silver duckwing pheonix in your photos big time. Excited to see what we ended up with.
they arent my babies the photos were from google. i dont currently have any babies rn just my 1 year old flock.
