This is what Welsummers look like

The hen at the bottom of the first picture sure looks like a Welsummer.

That's a Production Red/hatchery RIR...

They are speckled Sussex.

They are Speckled Sussex. Not Welsummers or Jubilee Orpingtons.

Thanks everyone! We are now fairly certain they are Speckled Sussex. We at least know they aren’t Jubilee Orpingtons now so she’s going to contact Meyers so she can get some welsummers. And I am adding Speckled Sussex to the poll now.

Not sure if it’s ok to post here but can any of you tell me just by the looks of this guy if he would be a good breeding roo? He’s about 6 months

Hi shooz!

I don't mind you posting it here, but you will probably get more answers if you also post it in the General Breed Discussion & FAQ board and start a thread there.

Is he a Speckled Sussex? I don't know much about the breed, but he is gorgeous!

Thank you!! He is an English Jubilee Orpington. I’m just not sure if he meets the breeding standards. I like him either way and we aren’t breeding to sell I just want pretty chickens. Maybe some for my kids to show.
