My friends and I ordered 17 chicks from McMurray's, 2 each of the following breeds plus 1 mystery chick:
  1. Cuckoo Marans
  2. Whiting True Blue
  3. Black Australorp
  4. Black Cochin
  5. Dark Brahma
  6. Blue Laced Red Wyandotte
  7. Golden Wyandotte
  8. Silver Laced Wyandotte

One person then went to the local feed store and brought home:
6x Lavender Orpingtons (these we can identify easily!)
2x Easter Eggers
2x assorted dark brown egg layers - could be any of the following: Barnevelder, Cuckoo Marans, Blue Cuckoo Marans, Welbar, Welsummer

These photos were taken when all chicks were just over 2 weeks old. I'm going to break up all the photos into a few separate posts, and label the ones that I think I can ID. Please help with IDs if you can!

There is only ONE chick that is mostly black with feathered feet, and it looks like we have THREE Gold Lace Wyandottes, so I think that was a switcheroo done by McMurray's.
 
Well, after all that effort, today I went to visit the chicks again (they're being raised at my friend's house until they are old enough to live outside), and with their wings fully feathered out I was able to sort out every single one. 🤦‍♀️ 😅
