Mixed hens, or pure light brahma hen. Dad would be bark brahma, or mixed roosters. None in witch have beards, so I don't know we're he got his beard.
Beards are a dominant trait. Even a small beard can and will be passed on. It looks like you have a couple silkie mix hens, a couple d’uccle mix hens, a silkie hen, and a mixed breed barred rooster with a beard. One of his parents must be one of those bearded chickens, and the other is most likely a brahma.He doses, the only EE I had was lavender but she was a chick when my bark brahma died.
Here's my boy and light brahma hen.

Here's my girls I had him in with. Well I guess some of the girls have small beards, the beards aren't like full beards.
Your rooster is sort of medium/silkie-sized, right? Is he larger than the bantam brahmas?
