We purchased fertile eggs from a hatchery. Incubated the eggs. The breeds we chose were Favarolles,Americanas,Buff Orpington, New Hampshire and Copper Marans.
These are five roosters that we are looking for their breed names.
We have always had Rhode Island Reds. Two years ago, we purchased RIR’s and Barred Rocks from a hatchery in Texas. They do not act like either breed we have ever had before. We suspect, the RIR’s are Red Star, instead of RIR.
We wanted to try new colors in our new flock. So, these are roosters from the hatch.
What breeds do you think they are?

I had some New Hampshire hens. I would guess that D and E are New Hampshires.

Editted to add: I just noticed those white tail feathers on E, so he must be mixed with something. Handsome boys anyway.

A, B and C sure look like Easter Eggs to me too.
 
A, B, and C are Easter-eggers. D could be a New Hampshire (the lighting and blurriness makes it hard to be 100% sure), but E is a mix of some sort. Wrong skin color for the New Hampshire breed, and a New Hampshire would not have white in the tail feathers like that.
