I wish my 2 brown ones were SS but I doubt it because they don't have white chests, more of a light tan color, so they're probably leghorns. But I'll be pleasantly surprised if they do turn out to be SS!
The one you're calling a SLW is definitely not one. The legs are slate colored and the comb is a single. S/he(?) is most likely a Silver Lakenvelder bantam... and I say bantam because at 5-1/2 weeks of age s/he is actually SMALLER than all of the 2-1/2 week old chicks that you see in the pics.
The red/orange one has reddish feathers coming in on her body now. White wing feathers with reddish body feathers = golden comet(?) - I hope!
Now I'm kicking myself for not getting the 2nd one like her from the pullet bin.
The BR is no mystery. But is it a Barbara or a Brock?
Waiting to see about that.
