Hello - Great forum! This is my first post but I've been reading "anonymously" for a while now. I keep alpacas and have acquired 10 chickens from a livestock auction. I have them in a 4' x 8' coop with a 16' x 8' outdoor pen. I'm curious to know what the experts think I have here. I know this isn't a great picture but it's all I could get while it's dark out. :)

These guys do have feathers on their feet if that helps. Since I got them from an auction I really know nothing about them or their history. Also - If anyone has an idea of their approximate age that would be great as well. I know I have at least 3 roosters. I guess I'll see how they get along and make changes as necessary. Thanks in advance!

 
I see a beard on the one in the middle with his head up, so not pure brahma. Could be Brahma/Easter egg cross.
I see at least 2-3 roosters.

indiviual pictures from the side are best, they look old enough for the roosters to have their pointed hackle(neck) and saddle(back) feathers to come in.

Okay - I'll try to get some profile pics in the daylight. Thanks for the info!
 
these are what saddle feathers look like on a 4-ish month old cockeral.
