Heres the crosses possible:
Black Copper Marans Roo, Wheaten Marans Roo, Blue Ameraucana Roo, Welsummer Roo over the following hens:
Cuckoo Marans, Deleware, Welsummer, Wheaten Marans, Black, Blue and Wheaten Ameraucanas.
these guys are roughly 6 weeks...and I am starting to think I see a roo....do you?
Heres the pics I could snap today....:

the last pic is a week ago...
theres 5 total...what do you think and why...I am fairly clueless and the more I read the more confused I am getting.
Oh and extra points if you can tell me what color eggs. Our breeder guessed and I have it written down somewhere I can check that too...just asking for fun.
 
Black and white barred: BC marans over cuckoo marans?

Top right, first pic: Welsummer over Ameraucana?

Small black chick: Black ameraucana over blue?

Two that look to have a lot of ameraucana in them.

Honestly though, very hard to tell from those pics. I can't wait to see pics of them in another month; a lot of them will look very different.

so I was thinking the one that is black/copper the top right first pic may be a roo? I dunno...I have really been getting a dude vibe from that one. "her" name is Hettie...but I am thinking maybe Henry is more in order? How do I tell?
 
Does she have wattles starting? If you can get a real good face shot (especially the comb) we may be able to tell. It's hard though, since we don't know exactly what breed she is.
