I bought some chicks today and stupidly mixed them up before put any sort of identification on them.
3 are supposed to be olive eggers, 2 beifelders, 1 I think is supposed to be a welsummer.

Is there anyway to tell them apart?

Unfortunately they all look so similar as chicks it’s almost impossible.

The olive eggers may have pea combs or green/slate legs, so if you see any that have those traits, they should be olive eggers. Of course, they can also have yellow legs and single combs, in which case they’ll look just like the others as chicks.

Bielefelders are barred, so if you have any with a white dot on their head, or who look like they’re getting in striped feathers, those could be Bielefelders. To complicate things though, olive eggers can also be barred :p

Other than that, you’re going to have to wait until they grow up a bit and have some more feathers.
