I have a total of twelve chickens 2 roosters and 10 hens. Most of my hens are golds and reds. I have two barred hens and a brahma hen and rooster pair. But I have no idea what breed the other rooster is.

Here is the link to the most recent picture. We got this rooster in a trade. My dad breeds lovebirds so we traded a rooster for a lovebird.

If you are talking about the deep red rooster on the left of the picture, he looks my Rhode Island Red rooster. The picture color quality isn't the greatest, but that's what he looks like to me. Is is tail greenish?In looking at the picture again, the comb is throwing me off a bit. I'm sure someone will know more than I do.

Yes that is the one I'm talking about. Yes he does have dark green tail feathers though they look more black to me.

x2 He's got the right comb for a Wyandotte (a rose comb) while Welsummers have singles.
