You got a gr8 collection, and what an excellent name. Enjoy your new feathered friends.

The chicks with the stripes behind there eyes and the slate colored legs look like Phoenix

Poultryhaven, I just looked up Phoenix, and the chicks do look exactly like mine. Just to clarify, are these the ones that could be Phoenix with the stripe behind their eyes? I was thinking that these were the welsummers or easter eggers:










Thanks so much,
Clare

I think they all look like phoenix. The phoenix are more likely to come in the Ornamental Layer Collection than EE's

Wouldnt the EEs have muffs/feathered cheeks???

Excellent! Thank you poultryhaven. One more quick question if you don't mind. I think all of them have greenish/blue legs except one that has yellow legs. Is the one with yellow legs different than the rest? Thanks for your help!

PaintedGemsRanch, you might be right. I honestly don't know since I'm so new at this. Someone earlier mentioned that they could be Easter Eggers or Welsummers.

Cochins, Buff Orps, EEs, Polish.

Mine do...they were visible at about 3 weeks of age and they are very distinctive! Can't wait to see them when they mature to layers.
