I know the genders (at least I think so XD)

1st pic, these white ones. One is mostly white with a slightly cream head, that's Off White. The bigger, Snowball, one has tiny black spots on him and his head is the same white as his body. (I think they're both girls, actually)



I can only get close enough with better pictures when they are eating, sorry.

Second picture, the two barred ones. I don't know if they are Silver Campines or Egyptian Fayoumis. One is a hen and one is a rooster.

(And is the Duck a mallard, he looks mallardy.... but most breeds of duck came from the mallard and a lot look like him :0)



More pictures of the Campinish ones (Puffin and Penguin) and Snowball and the tan one, just left of the Campineish rooster, is Tan. Tan is.... Tan... that's all I know. I think she lays brown eggs.



(Why are the combs on my brown leghorns so HUGE, one drapes over an eye and is not straight up, but the others are smaller and straighter, but still like the size of a roosters....)


This is supposed to be an Auracana hen, but the three hens we got look only alike in shape.



It was supposed to be a Rosecomb leghorn, but the comb doesn't match the picture's I've seen in
some chicken books.


Big Red, the Rhode Island Red Rooster, at least I think he's a RIR




Mysterious Black Duck and tan chick with a cream/greyish back end and tail



This is Creme brulee, not sure what she is.


"Fayoumi" rooster



A picture of Off White again



Another "Aracauna"



Tan again



Another group picture.



Barred Rock chick?



Same barred rock and a Trevor the Guinea in the background




Fluff Butt, a rooster. What kind? I have no idea.

The white chicken with black spots could be some sort of White Leghorn cross layer like the Austra White etc.
The little bantam looks like maybe a Red Pyle Old English Game.
If they are hatchery, not sure you can really tell the Camps from the EFs for sure, the EFs do seem to be whiter and the Camps more/better barring, the girls floppy combs, and the Camps should be bigger birds... if you know what hatchery they came from, some don't carry both so you might be able to figure it out that way.
Not sure what tannish ones you mean, the one the farthest right maybe something like a Pioneer, duel purpose meat/egg breed mix... the Tan in the later picture could be one also, doesn't really look like a sex link, could be a Basque but odd to get that from a hatchery.
The brown ones with peacombs and face feathers like in the single picture are Easter Eggers, hatcheries often sell/call them Ameraucana/Araucana.
Looks like that rose comb BL is just a single comb BL, they BLs usually do have really big combs that flop over in the girls (pretty much all Leghorns do).
The chicks do look like BRs.
Does the roo have feathered legs? pretty boy.
 
Yay, someone with answers! :D

Most of these came from either Attwoods or Lone Star Feed. I think they both get them from Ideal, but I could be wrong.

There are three tan ones(Tanish to a degree) that I'm not sure of. If it is tan colored, I don't know what it is. I thought Tan was a Buff Orpington, but, I dunno now...
Creme Brulee, Tan and the Unnamed one to the right of black duck. I got Tan from Craigslist, along with Red(not pointed out in pics) and Fluff Butt and Big Red.

Easter Eggers? I've heard of them, and shucks, I wanted Americanas.... The ones with the "hawklike" faces. (I'm going to be a falconer, yes I know a chicken doesn't "look" like a hawk)

Yes, Fluff Butt has feathers on his feet. My sister and I got him for Craigslist, I picked out Big Red and she got Fluff Butt. I prefer clean legged chickens honestly.

I wasn't sure if I fed the girls something or I don't know...something , thanks.

I was told Guy was a Black Breasted Old English Bantam, from a flea market, he came as a pair, but the dogs.... that was the first time the chickens have seen dogs and now they get along with them mostly. Though the chinese geese (Toby and the two Tobettes) and the duck(Chris and Gimpy) will bite at the dogs.... bad goose. I don't think Gimpy is in here, but she's the female "mallard" that we got from a flea market with a messed up foot. She hops on one foot with her other folded under her.

Any thoughts on the black, young duck?
 
Whoops, skipped some where the pics didn't load, Creme Brulee looks like a Black Tailed Buff Japanese maybe.
That blue/tan chick with the black duck would guess another EE, if it has a peacomb... pretty much if from a hatchery and it has a peacomb, clean legs, brownish in color, and face feathering usually guess EE.
With a solid black duck my first guess is usually Cayuga, it doesn't look like a Runner.
The roo just to the right of the red bucket does look like a BBR OEG.
With the tan ones, maybe it is just the picture, but I am seeing a bird that looks sort of barred with some spotting? Pioneer/Rainbow Ranger/ Dixie Rainbow etc https://www.meyerhatchery.com/productinfo.a5w?cat=1020&subcat=5081&prodID=RRBS
 
Creme Brulee does look like that, I agree. I guess I'll be getting some more colorful eggs then with the EEs. I was thinking Cayuga too, so shiny when adults, I like it. I checked out Stoneys chicken breed book from the library and am taking a peck at it, man I want some Sebrights bad. (What is a good price for fertile eggs/chicks/ adults? I don't want to get scammed. Both Silver and Gold)

The bucket is orange, but that doesn't really matter. They all get excited when I approach it. With fluff butt .. .maybe he's a mutt?
 
The duck that you think is a Mallard, could a number of breeds and it's hard to tell from that picture BUT let just call him a Rouen and that will keep you from needing a federal migratory bird permit.

I think he really is a Rouen. I have a couple drakes I've had for years and he looks about their size. When we go to the river, the wild mallards always look tiny, they're really not very big birds. Or they're supposed to be bigger birds and there's just no food
hmm.png
 
I honestly don't know. He's not as nice as ducks at the lake.... he bites the dogs.... So, I'm just taking a shot in the dark
 
Definately the off white is a red pylenold english game hen.
Cant be sure what the white one is, it seems to be a leghorn hen.
It could be a mallard and its to light in weight to be a rouen, i think, but in ohio, we no longer need permits.
Those are most likely silver campines, from vody structure and color.
That araucana, is actually an ameraucana.
That rosecomb leghorn, looks like a brown leghorn hen.
Yep, thats a rhode island red rooster. (Ive heard many times that rhode islands, especially roosters, are agressive, and can kill your other birds.)
To me, it could be a cayuga, or a black east indie bantam duck. Depending on the size. It is definately a hen.
The silver and gold hen also in that picture, looks exactly like a younger one of my ameraucana, Luna.
I have no idea what that black tailed gold hen is.
The tan one to me isna buff orphinton.
That is a barred rock, but its tail is potentially a roo.
Fluff butt looks like a bantie cochin of some sort to me.

Hope this helps, I'm certain on all the breeds but the black duck and fluff butt, and the white bird whith black spots
