Okay so I got a bunch of chicks in Nov from Rural King. I got some RIR, Barred Rock, and a breed I cant remember I specified. I am wondering if these are Wellsummer's or Olive Eggers? I have been thinking that they are Wellsummer's and looking at this thread I'm pretty sure they are, but thought I would ask the experts.

Also are any thoughts on them being pullets or cockerels? The one with the darker feathers is quite aggressive and has no problem confronting the others if they so much look at him/her cross-eyed, so I am thinking it is a cockerel.

No.
Not Welsummers..
 
Some form of a hybrid.
And the others are RIRs.
And i see a BR. All girls.

Thanks, yea the one barred rock I was thinking may be a rooster, he has very long tail feathers and his stripes are very defined vs the others. However all of them are supposed to be females and not of them have definitive combs and wattles that would be distinguishably different than the others.
