Are these Rhode Island Reds ?

Looking for a little help in identification of my newest additions. I was told they are Rhode Island Reds. From what i've found on the internet they look like it. Yet the black & mostly white chicks have me wondering. Any ideas / thoughts?

They look like sex links.

Where did you buy these birds?

Where did you buy these birds?

They look like a bunch of mixes, truthfully. Some red in the background on some of them, but none of those are RIR.
The red and white chick is colored like a sex link, but with that comb is's all boy, so it's not first generation sex link. I wonder if someone put a red roo over some sex link hens?
The mostly black bird could be a black sex link, but we need a better pic to say for sure.
I don't know how many birds you have total, but I think I'm seeing at least 3 cockerals.

Thanks for the responses. I bought them ( total 6 ) from a woman who claimed they were RIR. I looks like 4 out of the 6 are going to be roosters. I was leaning toward the brown ones being reds which is 4 of them. Is was stumped on the black & the brown white mix?

I'll get some better pics this afternoon. Just gotta get the black one to cooperate !


Meanwhile here's a baby pic.

The black one also looks like a roo, you have one pullet and she is on the right drinking from the bowl in the pic before the last.
