I'm still trying to figure out what breed these chicks are. I know they are young but anyone have any ideas? I bought them from someone local and they aren't what they were supposed to be. Thanks for anyones help.

Thanks for the guesses. I was hoping Delaware but wasn't sure. The black one was supposed to be a Black Astraloup (spelling?) I got three of those but the other two also have black on thier beaks so maybe that makes a difference. I guess I just have to wait and see for sure.

The black one doesn't look like an Australorp at all to me. I don't believe they have a spot on their heads, and they usually have more white/yellow on their chests and even faces. They look like little penguins usually.
 
Yeah.. I say "maybe to australorp. All of mine had crazy yellow fluff everywhere. Heres a pic of one of them

Here are pics of 2-day old Black Australorps for comparison - I agree your little blackie is a barred rock or a dominique. The first photo you posted might be an Easter Egger - I say that because the legs look green in the photo.

I did not notice the color of the legs until the photo. Does that mean that if chicks have green legs they or EE or at least mixed with EE?
