I was given 3 chicks from my sisters flock. Turns out they were all roosters. Gave away 2, kept 1 to build a flock around. I ordered an assortment (15) of colored egg layers from Hoovers Hatchery. There was no breed list with what I got. It’s been a few decades since I’ve had chickens so I’m curious what breeds I have now that they are grown and starting to lay eggs.

1. Cinnamon Queen or rhode island red(production breed)
2. Olive egger
3. Black copper Maran
4. Gold laced wyandotte
5. Buff brahma
6. Easter egger
7. Black australorp
8. Rhode island red
 
1-white tail feathers is a Red Sexlink, black is a Rhode Island Red
2-Legbar-derived Egger
3-Black Copper Marans
4-Blue Laced Gold Wyandotte
5-Buff Brahma
6-traditional Easter Eggers
7-rooster is potentially Production Red or just a mix. Black hen is likely a Jersey Giant, depending on if she has yellow skin on bottoms of feet. That's what it looks like to me but you have to verify this in-person. Eggers are in background
8-Rhode Island Red
