Hi, I just joined you guys today. We are brand new with chickens as of yesterday. Been wanting to get them and have been researching for some time now and finally decided to do it. We picked up 6 chicks yesterday (supposed to be female so we'll see). 2 I believe to be Barred Plymouh Rocks, 2 are Rhode Island Reds, and 2 I have absolutely no clue what they are (got them at Tractor Supply in the Pullets bin). My husband and I have 2 boys (currently 3 and about to be 6), 4 dogs, a cat, and 3 horses on a small farm in Georgia. Oh, and now 6 chickens 
I'd love any ideas on what the breed of the attached chicks are and I'll welcome any starter advice I can get!
Oh, and the lighter yellow one seems to have some feather issues on her belly. Not many feathers left and a little irritated. Don't want to just rush her back to the store or anything because she seems otherwise just fine and she's super sweet. Any suggestions? Thank you!

and Welcome To BYC! X2 on what TwoCrows said about the chick with the missing feathers, if you are worried about it, you could also post a picture of its belly.
