What kind of chicks are these?

They are to young to sex for sure, I would say most of them look likely Wynndottes except for the brown one. Does it have "puffy" cheeks? It could possibly be an Easter Egger.

no puffy cheeks. They seem a bit on the small side as well.

I was also thinking easter egger if the cheeks were puffy. Trying to figure it out is always fun.

Are there two brown ones? One could possibly be a Welsummer though I don't think so.

I Googled easter egger and Wynndottes. I'm still learning about different breeds. The chicks both looked like what I have except my reddish brown ones didn't seem quite so fluffy. I'll see if I can get one more pic of them all together.

Easter Eggers aren't really a breed they are mixes that usaully have Ameraucana in them but no always. Welsummers are an actually breed though.

Incorrect. Easter Eggers do not have Ameraucana in them. They are derived from the same import stock, but Ameraucana have been bred towards a particular standard and Easter Eggers have not. If you want to get technical, Ameraucana have Easter Egger in them; not the other way around.

Looks like a straight-run Wyandotte assortment. You've got a few Silver Laced, and at least one Partridge. Pink combs before chicks are feathered in usually indicate cockerels.

What I wonder is.... My BR pullets seem like they get pink in their combs and wattles/ears, but it comes and goes. Seems more like excitement flush or something?

Ya, my EE chicks are very fluffy. From the top ( how some of your pics are) you can see their puffy cheeks quite well. There is a ton of breed information out there. I hope you have as much fun learning about them as I do. Plus I like the breed/sex guessing game, it's exciting to watch.
