I had ordered 8 but was unable to get all 8 and some were replaced with a different breed and they gave me extra chicks., I'm new and confused.
When I think I know what one is I come across a picture that second guess myself. (They are supposed to be all female)
Of the 5 yellow ones two of those look bigger so not sure if all 5 are the same. 2 are peachy color.
2 are feathered legs silvery chickmonk color. 1 is feathered legs & black color. 1 brown chickmonk color. 1 black color and 1 red color.
Also does anyone know what this Bigger chick is, it's in the last picture.
Thank you ahead of time if anyone can help.

What sort of assortment did you order and from where?
 
What sort of assortment did you order and from where?
I had placed an order for 8 Single females based on egg Color and dual purpose. I then later called to see if I could add a couple more but they said I would have to make a whole new order (I didn't do). So I believe they surprised me with a couple of extras. I am not complaining about receiving the chickens I received, I'm just not sure of what they are.
The 8 I ordered are as follows:
** 1 Americana, 1 black Astrolorp, 1 French black copper maran, 1 Plymouth bard rock, 1 Rhode Island red, 1 golden laced Wyandotte,
1 Leghorn, and 1cream legbars.**
On the packaging it says... Due to limited availability one or more chicks may have been substituted or unable to be filled., I believe they added 2 buff Orphantons And 2 light brahma's. (One pictured)
I'm not sure but I think the ameraucana is the black one with no feathered legs. I think the black one with feathered legs is the French black copper Maran. I don't see a black astrolorp, I don't see a Plymouth bared rock, & I don't see a golden laced Wyandotte.🤷‍♀️
 
Americana (Easter Egger) can look like anything, so we'll save that one for last.

I think you may've gotten at least 2 White leghorns . . . chick 2 and 5 . . .the other "yellow" chicks look either too pale or orange to be leghorns, but it could be the lighting.

The one with chipmunk pattern I believe is the legbar, but it could be the EE.

The red chick that's second to last is your RIR, for sure . . .I'm raising a batch of 17 of them.

The other breeds I'm not familiar with as pure bred chicks.

Edit: 6 and 7 maybe your Buff Orpingtons . . I have one, but I got it as a 2 week old, but the down color looks right for that one.

I think the black one is the australorp.
 
Here are pictures of the 3 breeds I have for reference
