I have some new additions to my flock that I'd like to ID. They are all about 20 weeks old. I appreciate any input. The black one...Australorp or Maran or ? The red rumpless one...Araucauna? The Red with Black Tail...RIR or New Hampshire, or ? And lastly, my copper maran has unusual tail feathers...is she a HE?

I was thinking
RIR
Australorp
BCM
New Hampshire
but I could be wrong
all I know is the black ones are Australorps
and the one with copper is probably a BCM
 
Many look like sex links to me. 🫤
Red and black. (#1, 2, 5 & 6)

Looks like someone intentionally trimmed #1's tail feathers. (Shrugs)

Do you see yellow on the underside of the feet of 3 & 4? If so, leaning Jersey Giant due to clean feet and the sheen of the feathering.

If anybody was a sneaky cockerel in this bunch, my money is on number one- look how they stand- and this would explain the tail trim- they might be younger than 20 weeks too 😆-

Or #3 - that's a long tail shape- but it might be the angle of the photo.

My bet is # 5 is the closest to laying- she ought to start squatting for you pretty soon.
