We were given some chickens and four of them are new to me. I think they may be two different breeds or quite possible mix breed. Can you help identify them? I know the red one is Red Sexlink which are awesome. My four “Golden Girls” give us an egg almost every single day of the year!
Thanks in advance for this new country girl and loving it.

These to me look like EEs or EE mixes (so mixes of mixes) what color eggs do they lay? The red girl is an ISA brown, or as you said RSL

Yeah, they're Easter eggers. Pretty hens.

Hi there and welcome to BYC!

My first thought before seeing the other posts.. was also EE. They have no standard of perfection and therefor vary quite a bit in feather pattern and features (comb type, skin/shank/lobe color, beard, etc).. also very common to be mixed in their breeds (or "hybrid")..

Gorgeous ladies!

First bird looks like a game fowl cross to me, and the others look like EE.

We’ve had blue-green eggs from one of the black ones. A brown from the RSL. None from the others yet. I think they are still getting settled in.

Thank you for giving meaning to the EE comment. lol. All I know is the RSL ones.

Yes, I thought that about it because it reminded me of pheasants

Thank you. I think they are pretty. Not biased or anything. Lol

Some of those hens look almost identical to my EE & gamefowl crosses

You're welcome. I thinks it is unfortunate that people just use EE when a lot of people aren't going to know what that means.
