I know these are turken pullets but I was hoping someone could help with what color/patterns they are.

Turkens can be from any breed and chick feathers are often not the same as adults plumage.
Yes but in my experience they at least resemble or give an indication as to what they'll look like
 
Like my buff laced polish rooster's first feathers for example looked nothing like they do now. Well all my birds really including the guineas. The babes in question look like some kind of partridge maybe?? But they kinda vary which is neat
 
Looks like a partridge color almost. The one with the black on its face around the eyes with he stripes reminds me of my Phoenix chicks when they were young. Like mentioned above, Turkens can be any color and come from really any breed. I have black Australorp turkens, buff turkens, and red colored turkens. I want to eventually cross my black Australorp turkens with my silkies to make showgirls. :D

Thanks! I plan on mixing these girls with my buff laced polish and barred roo. And I'm waiting on a local breeder for her cuckoo showgirls to grow out!! I'd love to see your birds too

I went and looked at the one with eye spots after I got off from work and her legs are a slate color? Maybe she is some kind of game cross

Maybe so. You'll never know for sure with the turkens unless the breeder says exactly what they are, even then they can be off. It will be easier to tell once they're older and their colors and feathers come in more.
