cuckoo Marans 19weeks 2.7Kg, huge feet, big chest, makes a sound like a sick goose. Thought it was a cock due to growth rate and large tail, but starting to turn out more hen like. Tied for bottom of pecking order, largest in flock. Very flighty/timid, but calm once caught and picked up.
Buff Orpington 18 weeks 1.9Kg. Nice confident calm bird but not quite as people friendly as my Barred Rock(also 18weeks). She is actively vying for high level pecking position(2nd or 3rd) with barred rock, frequent chest bumps. I think my NH(19weeks) might be in 2nd but she is so confident and calm I can't tell, she doesn't mess with anybody and they don't mess with her. (Except for my old hen who gives everyone a daily peck for good measure.)
Welsummer 19 weeks 1.9Kg, white legs/feet. Very quick bird but not too flighty. Middle to low in pecking order, fairly independent of flock.
Welsummer back pattern.

18 week golden sex link, 1.7Kg. Started laying 5 days ago, has laid every day since eggs started at 36grams now at 42g. Very nice polite bird, semi-flighty but tame, tied for bottom of pecking order, smallest in flock.
Hen, about 12 months old Americana type. 1.9Kg, started lay first week of new year, lays 6-7 per week always over 60grams even the first egg. Top of the pecking order for now and intent on staying there, but not overly aggressive. (all others are under 5 months)
