Hi guys,

Just got a shipment of baby chicks recently and I'm having some trouble telling the breeds apart. In this order we should have gotten 5 olive eggers, 5 australorps, 5 french BCMs, 3 splash ameraucanas, and 3 splash laced red wyandottes. I am having trouble figuring out which three are the splashe laced red wyandottes. The olive eggers I believe are the brown chicks with black stripes of which I counted 7. Looking at some picks online the wyandottes can also look like this but there should be 8 if the wyandottes and olive eggers were counted together. Is it possible I am confusing the australorps and wyandottes? The ameraucanas with their gray down and puffy cheeks, as well as the BCMs with their feathered legs are easy enough to filter out. Any help or advice you fine folks have is greatly appreciated! Pic of all the chicks during brooder cleanup today attached below.
