Dad looks like a sweetgrass. Can't tell buy pic of hen but she looks like maybe bronze or maybe a red bronze. Not to familiar with red bronze but it looks like she has red or brown tips on her tail.

Apparently he is a Sweetgrass carrying a hidden Narragansett gene.

Does all the poults from that pair look the same?

No, some have more brown some have more gray. Some look more like the mom.
