Another round of What Breed is This?

Most of them hatch on the same day so I'm not sure who came from the white eggs. My only guess is that #1 did because Sicilian Buttercups lay white eggs but given that she might not be a pure breed even that is uncertain. None of them look anything like a Blue Andalusian to me as the lady put in her note.

Simple comparison of the possible roosters and possible hens says you have NO "pure" breed chicks other than the possibility of Lavender Orps. Never had one but I think none of your chicks look like they have that coloring.

Of all those breeds BAs are the only ones I have personal experience with. Were the last two black and white? At 1 month a BA would likely still have a fair bit of white on it. And they have very dark eyes. Maybe a RIR/Orp mix? But those slate legs are likely BA, Ameraucana or MAYBE a BCM? I'm seeing references to slate legs on them (like BAs) though there are also references that say they have feathered legs but who knows if they are mixing up FBCM with BCM. And is the person you got them from mixing up FBCM with BCM? So MAYBE a BA/BCM mix?

I agree on 4 & 6 being cockerels, those are some pretty serious combs at that age.

You are right, the game is rigged, no matter WHAT people guess, no one will ever know for sure

Thought it would be fun to follow up with new photo's. They are 4 and a half months old now. Its clear who the roosters are if nothing else

#4 Luke Clearly my daughter's favorite but she knows he's going to have to find a new home. You can't see it in the photo but he has an amazing blue/green/purple shine to his feathers.
