Our sanctuary just rescued these six "hens"... Not so sure the gray one in the middle is a hen. They're supposedly about three months old.
What breeds do we have here?
Thanks!

The gray one is a cockerel. The rest seem to be Easter eggers (with exception to the black bird). There is a hatchery hybrid EE that looks a lot like a golden comet. Not sure about the black one, but the rest seem like EEs. The one on the farthest right could be a golden comet or a hatchery hybrid depending on what it lays.
 
The blue bird is a cockerel, and a Sapphire Gem, which is a hatchery hybrid.

The rest are pullets. The black one could be an Australorp, and the red one with white neck feathers could be a red sex link. The rest look like Easter eggers with the buff bird maybe being some other type of hatchery hybrid. Basically, all except maybe the black one are mixed breeds.

I agree.
