Welsummer, Barnevelder or something else

[Sahraschweiss]

February 22nd, 2022, I got an order from Cackle for 4 Delawares, 4 Splash Wyandottes, 4 Barnevelders, and 4 Welsummers all sexed female and vaccinated. They gave me 4 extra chicks that I assumed were one of each or the breeds I bought. This assumption holds true for the Delawares and Splashes and Welsummers as I have 5 each of them. The Barnies have me confused.

This is my first time with Cackle and Barnies. So far all of the birds have been healthy. The Barnies are by no means show grade. None have clear double lacing. But one isn't the black and brown like the others. She cinnamon. She has the dark wash on legs like the other Barnies. The other Barnies do have color variations but are degrees of black and brown. One is more brown/gold than black.

Here is a black/brown girl:

Here's is the brown/gold girl

Here's Cinnamon

Here's one of my Welsummers

Cinnamon has a lacing pattern on her chest. It's not crisp, but noticable. She isn't narrow in shape like the Welsummer. She has the darker beak and leg coloring like the Barnies. Is she an off color Barnie or something else?

Thanks!

She looks closest to a Partridge Rock to me

She could be a partridge rock but I know that sometimes Barnevelders sport to partridge coloring, so that could be what happened, too.

@Rhodebar Lover @JedJackson Cackle does sell partridge rocks. When I ordered they weren't "available" for the date I selected, but that might have been a quantity issue. I could see them gifting the odd chick here and there.

If she is a rock, then she is nowhere near as neurotic and my barred rocks.

Thanks for the help!
