These might not be the best pictures, unfortunately the best I've been able to get lately. It's getting nearly impossible to get a picture of any one chicken without the others running into the scene. I've got a pretty hammy flock.

I usually try to chase others off by throwing treats, but that doesn't work. Everyone goes running!

Anyway. The feathers on their neck is...I would say a deep gold, almost like a shade of strawberry blond. I think their feathers are still coming in and changing. Their tail feathers have gotten a longer over the past week or so, starting to look a little more "fancy" than they did before. They're also getting a little white patch at the base of their tail which you can kind of see in the second picture, though it looks more gray in the picture.

Now that I'm looking at the pictures again I see that they really don't do a good job of showing the right colors. I'm starting to wonder if I messed with a setting on my camera to get the colors wrong. I tried taking a picture of some eggs that a new hen laid but the color in the picture isn't as dark as they are in reality. I don't know who's laying these eggs, I didn't think any of the breeds we have would lay eggs this dark. I've been thinking that our new bunch of hens were: an Australorp, 4 red sex-linked, 1 white Leghorn, 1 Rhode Island Red, 1 Brown Leghorn and 1 "Beak and Wings" (the gray/white unknown breed hen).

The two dark eggs are from one of the new hens, the other tan eggs are from one of the Rock girls.

Upon further review...and some cheating by looking at the "breeds" page. I think you have two Barnevelder Roos. Take a look at them and let us know what you think.

Were there any guesses about what breed the little "blond" hen might be? I didn't see any mentioned in any of the responses so far, but I may have just missed it.
