I change my mind to Black Star. If you go on Murrayy Mcmurray hatchery and look at the chick pics they have white on the wings

OOOO The ones in the first picture look like that!! I hope, I hope!!

I thought Black star too for the second picture!!

1st pic, top bird # 44: could be a black australorp. If it is getting blacker with white on the wings and has black on the front of the legs that would be a definite indication.

The first one looks like our Australorps did when they were chicks. See the picture of my babies below. My guess for the first one would be Australorp. If it is, it will be nearly solid black when it starts getting feathers.

I thought this too, but look at beak color. Pat's chickens have yellow beaks with black nostrils. The australorps have black peaks with some splotches of yellow... IDK if this changes it. That was just my observation

Doms and BRs would have a spot on the head, to some degree or the other. I'm not sure what you have there-there are so many black chicks! A black sexlink pullet will not have a spot and a cockerel would.

I guess I will keep them till they are grown and see what they are! I am intrigued now!!!
