Tiger woods 3yr old rooster

 

So this in one of my 3 roosters, he was also the first i got. 

some people up the road orderd chickens straight run ..... what a mistake! they ordered 30 chickens, 27 of them where roosters! so they where giving them away like free candy they told us if it didn't work out we could cull him and get another one.. lol it was funny.

 

We have not had a problem with him at all, they ordered a mix of breeds they ordered EE, Silver laced whyandottes( i have no idea how to spell that ), plymouth rocks and NHR.. Anyway i was wondering what he is... Can anyone tell me?

 

Here are pictures of my 2 other roo's

Fancy Pants

This was my exotic chick from Mcmurray He hatched July 4th we believe he is an EE.

 

Upgrayedd

This is Upgrayedd we got him sometime in march he is a plymouth rock and looks absolutely stunning in this picture i took in september.

I think #1looks like he could be a poor quality Silver Laced Wyandotte. He seems to have a rose comb, and some lacing, and those white wing feathers are correct. The legs aren't yellow, but that's a hatchery for you.

I lost my whole flock due to poor biosecurity. Read about it here: Infectious Laryngotracheitis, and learn from my mistakes so it doesn't happen to you.

#1 possibly HQ Silver Laced Wyandotte. Wouldn't bet my money on EE for him.

#2 is an EE. Definitely not Salmon Faverolles. http://www.feathersite.com/Poultry//CGD/Favs/BRKFaverolles.html

#3 is a Barred Rock.

Number 1 and 2 are Easter Eggers.

 

Number 3 is a Black Sex-link, not a Barred Rock. Rocks are lighter barred and don't have solid black feathers randomly through the body.

EE

EE

BSL - he is too dark to be a BR and he has black/green feathers in his tail.

I have a husband, two young children, two dogs: Miri and Mara, a red beta fish named Blue, three EE's: Friendly, Brunhilda, and Muffy, one Buff Orp: Fluffy Miss Bianca, one RIR: Nugget, one White Leghorn: Miss Legs, and one Golden Sexlink: Miss Sexy. Just added this spring: 1 Barred Rock, 1 Black Sexlink, 1 EE, and 2 Black Australorps (not yet named)
