No idea unfortunately. I'm guessing 6 weeks. Either the guy was wrong or my mom misunderstood and thought they're adults but obvious to me and everyone here they're not.

I thought I could provide a better understanding of what type of person we got the birds from if they themselves were caring for the birds in an unorthodox way or didn't know the age or breed. Its origins are controversial but I'm Asian so we can reclaim the term lol.I agree on the blue cockerel; it's probably a Malay mix. FOBish... haven't heard that since I moved off the coast...
my mom has randomly brought home two chickens...I went to Google and I think the small brown one is a rhode island red (it's got some black on its tail) while the other is a splashed laced red wyndotte? Or is it blue? It's got really long legs lol.
The brown one doesn't look quite like a Rhode Island Red to me; I would expect a Rhode Island Red to be a darker red than that.Not sold but literally picked off from some fobish Cambodian guy's farm. We're also Cambodian (Southeast Asian). Apparently he had dozens all over and just gave two to my mom.
I see! any idea what it could be mixed with?The brown one doesn't look quite like a Rhode Island Red to me; I would expect a Rhode Island Red to be a darker red than that.
It might be some kind of a mix, rather than belonging to any specific breed.
I appreciate any input. I might want to add but breed isn't too important I just want to know if I should accommodate in any way specific to them in the end I just love to learn lol.
any idea what it could be mixed with?
The red one appears to be a Production Red Cockerel. The blue looks like either a Modern Game cross, or possibly some sort of oriental mix.Once again, my mom has randomly brought home two chickens so now we have a total of 12. I currently have them separated in a large space underneath the coop attached to the run. Looking at them and hearing them chirp, I can assume they're 6 weeks old? My knowledge of breeds only goes as far as the ones I already have so I went to Google and I think the small brown one is a rhode island red (it's got some black on its tail) while the other is a splashed laced red wyndotte? Or is it blue? It's got really long legs lol.
I also hope they're both girls but might be too early to tell?
Right?!Oh wow...I dont know what he is, but that blue one is the stuff nightmares are made ofBut what do I know? I keep Naked Necks so chicken beauty is obviously subjective
