What am I?

Hello this spring we ordered some chicks which consisted of Welsummer, Olive Egger,Easter egger, Prairie Bluebell egger and French Black Copper Maran. They are 14 week old and there's 2 that I can figure out what they are. Maybe not what I ordered. Ha. The all black and red one in following pics. What u think?

Not sure about the black one, but that red one looks like a Rhode Island Red. In my opinion, RIRs are one of the best breeds (as you can tell from my bio pic, I’m a bit biased ). Good egg layers with great personalities and pretty hardy (I’ve read they can be overly bossy, but my girls have been great). It could also be a New Hampshire Red, too (they look similar to RIRs). It’s hard to see the comb, but it looks like a single comb..? If it’s a pea comb, she may be a Buckeye (if she was mostly blond with a little red when she was a chick, then likely Buckeye). Got my first Buckeye last year and OMG, what a delightful chick! So happy and curious and lovey. Another great breed, in my experience.

Yes I was wondering if that's what she was. We have a few of them as well. Just always disappointed when the order is wrong. Our son likes

to order so we can get the variety of colored eggs Here's some pics of the other girls he got. They look like to ones we ordered.

Could I see a better (possibly full body) picture of the red one? I was wanting to see if it had black tail feathers?

Can you get a closeup picture of the face of the black one?

Here you go!

My guess would be Rhode Island Red pullet! For your other one maybe a black australorp? Does it even have a single comb?

The black one looks like an australorp.

It looks like it has a rosecomb?
