Everytime im at tsc during chick time i keep my eyes straight ahead...

Pretty chicks always a lot of fun the babies!

That is what I did today for sure LOL They should definitely let you pick your own chicks - I told them to get the BRs with the defined dots on the head but he "couldn't" catch them...

They are too young to sex.

But your SS are actually New Hampshire Reds. SS have white legs.

I just looked up NH Reds and they looked nothing like my chicks. Are you sure? They didn't even has them listed as one of the available breeds when I went...

@sassysarah123 Can I get your thoughts?

So far I agree... we should be able to sex your barred birds in a week or two, given the barring on the wing feathers. The ones with white or pink legs are marans, the ones with yellow are barred rocks.
For your SS... I agree with @Crazy for Chickens! Its not a SS. My hatchery SS had whitish pink legs from the start. Also, my SS was chipmunk striped, as below.
