Oh my! Those are some pretty birds you have there. Now let's see... #3-possibly a buff orpington?? #4-I'd say either an aeraucana or some type of wyandotte. #5-I'm almost certain that's a silver laced wyandotte. #8-Rhode Island Red and Rhode Island Red bantam, or easter eggers. #9-Looks just like my light brahma pullet. Congrats!!

#5 being a featherfoot really has me scratching my head. If the feathers are coming in black with white spots, then this chick could either be barred or mottled. There are barred cochins and mottled cochins, but I don't recall seeing them on the hatchery's web page. D'Uccles are also mottled and have feathered feet, although usually they feather in in shades of brown first, and molt in their mottled coloring a little later on. I am not aware of any other featherfooted breeds that would have mottling or barring, but of course they could be out there. This bird might also turn all black, with the pattern we're seeing on its down. Ver-y interesting!

If it weren't a featherfoot, then other options like SLW would make sense. I'm sure it's not impossible to have a SLW with feathered feet, but they're not supposed to.
