We finally got chickens! We got a lot of different types and are having trouble telling them apart. This first one is a mystery. We thought we got a barred rock, silver laced wyandotte and cuckoo maran. It's a bit confusing because we also got two olive eggers from two different feed stores, so they don't look identical.

I think I've ruled out this is not the Silver laced wyandotte but does she fit the other breeds we got, or do you know what it might be? There's a lot of yellow on the belly and face and the white feathers you see poking out from underneath are solid white (the whole feather). The cuckoo maran is not accounted for, but this surely cant be, right? Yes, this is the same chick photos shot minutes apart.

Also, I think this might be our Barred rock. There's no tail feathers yet and everyone else has them so we are thinking a roo?

Thank you for your help! I know they are young and time will tell.

How cute! My GLWyandotte looked like your first chick photo and my BCMaran looked a lot like the second photo, just darker, a cute little round thing:)
