I bought these chicks from Sutherlands Home Base about 10 weeks ago and their labels were all miss matched. Even the employees did not know the breeds of these chicks. The labels read: White Leghorn, Rhode Island Red and Black Australorp. Do you think these are correct?

White leghorn looks correct.
That isn't an Australorp (not pure anyway) it has yellow underfeet, more likely Jersey Giant, although I notice it seems to have a pea/rose comb? So maybe a cross.
RIR is quite likely correct.
Actually I have a hen that looks almost identical to your supposed "Australorp". I'm interested to know what it actually is.
