Four Little Chickens

[Peep-Chicken]

I have four chickens, that all hatched in December, and need some insight please They are most likely barnyard mixes, chance they could be purebred.

Pullet? RIR cross? Hatched 12/24/14

Cockerel? Barred rock? Hatched 12/25/14

Dixon. Cockerel? Black star? Hatched 12/13/14

Ebony. Pullet? Black star?

Ebony is my favorite. Please don't tell me she is one of those meat birds. She's really wobbly on her feet.

Here is her and her hatch mate.

Ebony also has saddle feathers?

Thanks!

Ebony isn't a meat type bird but is a cockerel as are the 2 barred ones.

Production Red, pullet.

Mixed breed or Black Sex-Link cockerel.

Agree the red bird is your only pullet. the rest are mixed breed cockerels.

 

[Peep-Chicken]

Okay thanks everyone.

I agree with Wyandottes7's guesses.

I agree with Wyandottes7's guesses.

So do I.

I feel like pic #2 could be a barred rock cockerel? His feathering is different from #3, which looks like a BSL boy.

First one looks like a pullet and looks like my Rhode Island Red- here's her at about 5 weeks, she is now 11 weeks in pic below with my barred rock


2nd one looks like my Barred Rock which I also am thinking is a cockerel



I'm not sure on breeds of the last 2 but I think the 3rd one is a cockerel as well, No guess on the 4th ones gender.
