Any idea what we are?

I'm guessing mutts.....but maybe the experts can tell me more then that.
(Also...thinking 1 girl, 2 boys)
Thompson

Speedy and Mushy

Whoops....edited to add: 5 weeks old

Thompson looks like a Gold Laced Wyandotte.

Speedy and Mushy look like roos, whatever breeds they are...

 

[Matt A NC]

The first looks like a Gold Laced Wyandotte. The other 2 look like mixes.

Need a better angle on wyandotte's face, but all 3 look like Boys.

If anyone can figure out how to get chickens to hold still for pics, let us all know...

They all look rooish to me.

lol...Oh I know! They run like crazy as soon as they see the camera! That's why I put them in an empty cage so I could sorta just aim the camera into the cage. It only half worked.

I feather sexed them at day 1 and speedy was the only girl.
According to the list of 4-6 week old characteristics...speedy was still a girl.
She looks like a boy to me too! lol

Where does one find a list of sex characteristics by age? Thanks and good luck identifying your two mystery birds!

 

[Mrs. Fluffy Puffy]

Golden Laced Wyandotte Hen.
The other two are both roosters .. sorry!

They look like maybe either a delawares or perhapps Light Brahmas ...

All 3 look to be mixed..
The Gold laced one look like it may have Wyandotte in it but it's not a pure Wyandotte because it has a Single Comb and a Wyandotte would have a Rose Comb..
