Any idea on sexing or breed?

Rosemarys Chickens

In the Brooder

Hi everyone! So I recently purchased “large breed hatching eggs” from a breeder online. They hatched about 4 weeks ago under my broody hen, so I know it may be too early to sex them or tell what breed they are. But, I am wondering if the knowledgeable people on here would have any ideas.

The chickens are likely to be mixes of leghorn, Easter egger, Brahms, BLRW, and they have a frizzle rooster (which I suspect chick #1 is mixed with).

I tried to get the best pics I could and labeled them! Again, I know it may be too early, but I am just excited and curious of what they may be.

So, any idea on sex or breeds of these three? Thank you in advance!

Somewhere in there are some Silkie genes that show up in 1 and 3. It could be that the frizzle roo is the one passing those genes. 2 looks like an Easter egger cross. Too early to accurately sex them. 6 weeks is a good starting point. But I suspect 2 is a pullet, so that much is good news if you want girls.

I was thinking that #2 looked like an Easter egger cross, also happy to hear it may be a pullet. Although I don’t have any roos yet, so I wouldn’t mind if some were male. And I was pretty happy to see the frizzled feathers develop on #1 haha. Interested to see what the black one ends up looking like if it may have some silkie genes.

Thank you for your response!
