Hey everyone! I got a surprise pack back in Aug and the time has come to offload the roos. I've got two stumping me. Any more-seasoned chickeneer willing to give me a sex/breed explanation? Thank you in advance.

The white one is large and walks with a waddle. Quite a large bird. Tail feathers point down.

The other one with yellow legs and no comb is quite large and I watched it get in a fight the other day. Which is why it has me confused.

The curled tail on the last one with the white legs is what gets me because otherwise it's a pretty small bird.

Agreed. Very pretty roos you've got there! Hopefully they're not all the chickens you have, lol.

For breeds, the one with the white legs and speckles is a Speckled Sussex, the one in the last photo with lacing is a blue laced red wyandotte, and the white one is giving me Chantecler vibes, I'm not sure as Im not familiar with this breed.

OMG - thank you for this. No, we bought the 50 pack from Cackle so its been an adventure identifying. We got them to hopefully get some hens for us and my SIL. First time with roos. We ended up with plenty and then a wild amount of roosters but a neighboring real-life farmer had hundreds of hens so these extra fellas are going to him.
