I'm not sure what beed of chickens I have. Roo? he is the father of the chicks and the hens are barred rocks. Hens hatched 18 eggs about 1/2 are barred rocks like moms but the rest are these black chicks so not sure if they are taking after dad and if so will their colors change? The picture of the 3 is the chicks they are about 5 weeks old about 1/2 look like the one laying down (barred rocks) the rest look exactly like the other 2.
I don't believe any of the chicks belong to the red hen as she didn't hatch any and none look like her when she was a chick but would like help on what breed she is as well.
Not really concerned about the sex will find that out when they are old enough to tell, not a concern to us at this time.
