Breeds I Can't Figure Out

[tuesdays chicks]

I was looking in a book at the feed store yesterday and saw a bird looks just like the g campine but it had a different comb 1 looks like a horn. Don't know what that comb is called. But forgot the breed name too sorry if it has a single comb its a campine.

I know you didn't ask about this one...but the RIR in the background of #2 looks like a cockerel. I had a "pullet" just like it...shiny hackle and secondary wing feathers, big red comb, mean to all the others...until I could no longer deny he was a roo. If you post a clear picture of that one hopefully I'm wrong ;-)

Just to add to what everyone else has here, I do know that #6 is an EE roo.

#4 could be a Sicilian Buttercup, depending on the comb type. #6 does look like a roo...

I have to agree with every one else on #3 I would say she is a mottled houdan. Her mottling should come more with age. Her crest isn't rounded enough for a polish, but then again they are hatchery birds and the quality isn't always as good.

Yes, one of our RIR turned out to be a roo. Actually giving him away today, already have an Ameraucana roo and a White Capped Polish roo and that is plenty for our 30 or so hens/pullets. We are not breeding so...

Agree for the most part,
#2 could be a black Andalusian
#3 could be a Houdans

If #3 is a Houdan it will have 5 toes. The OP didn't say anything about the extra toes to I went for polish..

Maybe a dumb question, but does that mean 4 forward and 1 back - I will look? If it makes identification any easier, she has grey/blue legs.
