We picked up 6 chickens a few weeks ago, I was told there are 3 different breeds, but who is who? I think they are ~6 weeks old

I am thinking rooster? it has blue legs.





breed? Pretty sure hen


This one has started turning red in the last few days... Wyandotte?


Roo?


Thank you for your time!!!

(Rooster. Golden Laced Wyandotte)

Roo?
(Rooster. I'm thinking Black Australorp.)

Thank you for your time!!!

The top one might be a Black Australorp too, but I'm not sure about that.
 
The breeds I should have got were Orpington, Wyandotte and Ameraucana... now to decide which rooster to keep

I don't think EE are very common here.
 
They all look like cockerels to me.
1. Black orpington or australorp
2. Ameraucana or Easter Egger. This one could be a pullet. Need more photos/side view
3. Golden laced Wyandotte
4. Australorp

Those are my guesses. I've never had orpingtons as babies so I don't know how they look compared to young australorps. 1 and 4 could be either.

Rooster, either a black or blue Orpington (can't tell color for sure from the photo).

Easter Egger, thinking pullet for now. A side-profile photo would help.

Golden Laced Wyandotte rooster.

Roo?
Rooster, probably a Black Orpington, but could be a Black Australorop.

Thank you for the replies! 3/6 rooster... I don't think that ratio will work?

sorry head is blurry in this one... I was ok with just the black one in the back of this one turning out to be the roo.of the flock but recent development proofs different :(
