I've had these two hens for about two years now. They're my first and only chickens, and I'm still learning breeds. I bought them off an Amish man who claimed they were Road Island Reds, and that's what I've always called them, but they don't look dark enough in coloration to be RIR and they don't have any black on their tails. A friend of mine recently took a look at them and said they could be New Hampshire Reds or Red Stars. I don't think they're red stars as that's what my neighbor has a flock of and mine are a good bit bigger. So I'm at a loss.
The first picture is from this past fall. but they haven't changed much. One has gotten a good bit of white speckling on her back feathers, but that's it.
These two pictures are from this past March. Ignore the rooster, he belongs to my neighbor. Shortly after this photoshoot, the girls told him off and he hasn't come back since!
