Sunshine this one follows me big time, and talks to me, if Im standing by the fence wheres theres a roost, she jumps up to talk to me. I walk in to feed them and she jumps on the lid where the food is at. Very friendly

Smokey she is darker gray by the neck/face, but then gets real light gray~~~NOBODY KNOWS WHAT SMOKEY IS....

Geez you scored! Looks like a splash Orp, EE, Blue Orp, (or blue rock?), more EEs. Your roos look like an RIR, and the one with white in the tail maybe an RIR cross. Great looking birds!

Maybelline I think is splash orp (or splash rock- but do rocks come in splash?)
Jewel is a (blue laced red) EE possibly.
Negrita is a blue orp (or again rock?)
Sunshine is an EE,
Smokey- not sure but really pretty. Love the light blue in her! And you know the roos!
 
oK, GUYS....WE ARE WRONG SOMEWHERE...you all said I had an EE...which is my Sunshine...then you all said that the others looked like ....Jewel a blue laced red?....maybe EE in her....well yesterday for my very first time...my EE laid, I got a light Green egg!!!! I was so happy and it was tiny...lol,

then I went back out 2hrs later and I had another light Green egg....???? so blue laced red is not that?...but an actual EE??? I mean look at the pictures, who else can it be????

any ideas? HELP....lol, I'd really like to know what I have!!!!! lol...the guy who sold them to me didnt!!!!

EE is a mix, so to get the blue laced red EE, they probably mixed a blue laced red wyandotte....yay for EE green eggs!!!

Oh, and the roo all the way on the right is a red sex link...maybe you knew that, but I didn't see anyone mention him, just the RIR's...

Pretty girls!!!
 
Studley to the far right is a Sex Linked? what the heck is that? Im very new to chickens...ok. so your saying my Blue Laced Red...is mixed with an EE...so she also laid the green egg? cause I know my sunshine lays green/blue...saw her today..and there tiny eggs!
will they get bigger???

His comb is way way to the far right side, he cant even see out of his right eye its covering!!! thats his French Beret!!!!
