Ordered Ducks, received warming chicks??

[Faustina14]

Here are updated pictures. They are about a week old now. One of the black ones is quite a bit smaller than the rest. Anyone care the guess breeds? I am almost positive the brown one is a brown leghorn. But the rest have me stumped.

I will guess......
Black sex links for all the black ones.
The chipmunk could be any of several breeds but I will go with welsummer.

Not sure on the light colored one.

I agree with black sex links and brown Leghorn. The yellow chick is likely a white Leghorn. Someone was buying high production layers.

I thought white Leghorn too, but am thrown off by the brown feathers. I assumed they would come in white.

You're right! I didn't see it... thought it was shadow. Eyes are getting old! It is a mystery chick!

Could be something like an Amber White or Amber Link... mostly white chicken with some color on the wings.

@Faustina14 have you tried finding the original purchaser? Maybe your state thread here, or local facebook groups... depending on how many post offices your box visited. The mixup could have happened at any post office. I would assume the original buyer got them replaced by the seller, but it might be fun trying to figure it all out.

Wow, what a neat story! I have no clue on the breeds of chicks, but I wanted to wish you good luck on your chick adventure!
