These are my 3 day old chicken i got given, the yellow one named "spider back" has 5 toes, seems odd to me

These are its feet

This is "Snake Bait" (I didn't pick the name)

Houdan and Australorp? Definitely not sure of Houdan, but think the other is Australorp. Cute chicks!

I'm really not certain, but I don't think the 2nd one is an australorp. It looks like it has lacing coming in the wing feathers. Where did you get them and what are the breed possibilities? That would help narrow it down.

Do both chicks have toes?
What kind of combs do they have?

the first one looks like an EE.... not sure about why it has so many toes though... and the second one does look like an australorp, aside from it's wing feathers, like the last person said....

Thankyou, "snake bait" is indeed an Australorp, a Black Australorp in fact. I used your information to google it, however none of the Houdon pic look like mine...its got spider back like picture on its back...does this mean i have bantom chickens?

Pic of my Australorp. You can't see wings in this picture, but it looked just like yours.
