Identifying my little Easter Egger (silkie?!) chicks...

[Shadywood]

I bought some chicks that I expected to be Easter Eggers, but a couple seem distinct. The top little one has feathers all down to her toes and has yellowish fur. There is a black and grey one with legs that seem to be turning black/slate; there’s one with distinct eye markings. The other two look like I’d expect EEs to look.... super confused so if anyone has any ideas I’d really appreciate hints. They are super lovely and fun!

I’m no expert but they all look like EE. Since they are made from a combination of different colored egg layers they come in all different colors. Your feathered leg chick looks like she may be a partridge silkie but could very well still be an EE

Interesting, thanks! They seem to have so much body shape variety that I am looking forward to see how they develop. Will post follow ups!

The first looks like a bantam?
The second is an EE,
3rd could be a marans or an austrolorp.
the last two pics look like gold laced wyandottes or EE.

Thanks so much! The first is so small I don’t know if it’s younger or a bantam... agree with Australorp (have two already) - I got them from TSC because they looked so sad in their horrid storage cage and I don’t think TSC are very careful about what they sell.

It turned out it’s two EEs, one olive egger and one bantam mille fleur d’uccle! However we have suspicions the fancy bantam is a rooster... waiting to see for sure.
