what breeds are these?

I am supposed to have a white leghorn hen, a barred rock hen and then a RIR hen. The brown chick seems lighter in color then a RIR hen to me. Could she be a new hampshire red? Also I am worried the Barred Rock may be a dominique. I am pretty sure the leghorn is a leghorn.

I have some Barred rocks and that looks like it is a barred where did u get him from

I got them from Meyer Hatchery. I am hoping they are all females.

I'm pretty sure that's a barred rock - a dominique would have a rose comb, and your bird has a single comb. The RIRs tend to darken as they get their mature feathering. Depending on the source of your chicks, it may be a Production Red (hatchery version of a Rhode Island Red).

Ya don't we all it is hard to tell the sex of chicks ive heard if you hold them by the neck with your thumb and index finger depending on which the feet goes up or down tells there sex but I don't know if thats write I would trust a hatchery since there use to doing that

Your barred rock is indeed a barred rock, as stated she has a straight comb, and is a girl. Your rir girl looks just like mine. They don't get the darker red color until later.
