Red on the shoulder on a black bird is male specific. Plus male hackle feathers are starting to come in.
They look like Marans/Ameraucana crosses.They guy we got them from don't no much about the breed. He has buffs,and the golden lace. But the black chicken has feathers on its legs and the grey one don't, does that mean anything or is it a different breed. Thanks for getting back to me.
If a black hen has any 'leakage' it would be on the head, neck, and chest; like a black sexlink or Black Copper Maran hen. Dark red on the shoulders always means male.
