Please Help, Have no clue what kind of chicks these are!(Newbie)

Do they look like these photos to you?

Yes mine look just like that too, I think someone else said they may be easter eggers.

Also the other really dark ones that have the darker stripe down there backs, any clue on those? They dont have feathered feet, but I have noticed the little tuufs of feathers sticking out on their cheeks, and also looks like maybe their heads.​

Oh, I hope they are right about them being easter eggers. I really have no clue on the darkers ones. I will do some looking and see if I can figure it out, though.

By looking in the MMM Book, the best I can figure is they are proabbly a type of polish, or one of the crested breeds. There are several different ones in there that look like our little chipmunk ones,lol​

Ok, the closest I could find on the MMM website was the Rhode Island red Bantam. That really surprised me, cause I thought it would look more like the standard. Anyway, this is the photo from their site. What do you think?

For this chick Id agree with you about the RIR. But I have 3 others similar to that one that are more of a dark blue to black, with th stripe down there back. There feet are not furry, but they have the fur tuffs sticking out from there cheeks, and also kinda looks like its starting on top of there heads too.

Very similar to this one, but darker. Well at least we think we know what this one is.

So far I have: RIR, Blue Cochin, White Cochin, EE, Black Australorp, and some kind of crested type. That pretty much narrows this batch down. The rest are pretty much all yellow, so I didn't even attemt to figure them out. Ill just have to wait and see on those. Thanks for all the help
