This is what they say they can be: We are excited to offer the following varieties of English Orpingtons: Silver, Blue, Chocolate, Jubilee, and Mottled.
It appears I have 3 different types (of 5 chicks), but on their identify my chicks, I don't see any English Orpingtons
Can anybody help me identify what colors I have please

You don't have any Silver-laced that I see.

This is Chocolate.
 
I'm happy with any of them, but was not sure on the blue and chocolate and was wondering if there were others in the Hoover mix they didn't list.
Thanks all!

I should have mentioned, you definitely have Jubilee. lol Unless those are imposters of another breed but the same chick down.

The blue one appears to have feathered legs. Is it possible for another picture showing the legs, just to be sure?
 
Imposters!

It's not uncommon for English Orpingtons to have stray feather stubs on their legs.
Looks like more then a few. One reason I pointed it out.

I know it's not uncommon. I had light leg feathering pop up in my project Orpingtons once. I've decided to discontinue the project but reuse the birds for a new one.
