Hey guys! I was given some chicks from a family friend with a mixed backyard flock. I’ve spent countless hours trying to decipher what breeds my chicks could be. They are currently 8 weeks old. One of the black and white cockerels have feathered feet and a couple have feathered poofs on their heads. Any guesses are appreciated!

:welcome
They all look like mixed breeds. You've got a lot of cockerels there. I'm only seeing 2-3 pullets in that bunch.
Out of the 8 chicks only 3 are pullets unfortunately… But on the bright side i’ll probably order some colored layers to add to the flock
