Gift chickens, but what breed/gender?

[ambabya]

Agreed

This one too

So, so far, 2 cockerels and 1 pullet. Any ideas on the other genders or breeds?

Pullet, possibly Easter Egger

Cockerel, is he bigger then the others? does he eat more?

Maybe Gold Laced Wyandotte

Gold Laced Wyandotte

Gold Laced Wyandotte, maybe pullet

We were gifted 8 chickens. 7 of those chickens are about 6 weeks old. We know a couple breeds, but no genders. Here they are. Can you identify the breed and gender?

Some sort of Production Red Hybrid, pullet

The same as the one above except cockerel




Where did you get them?

A friend. That fiend got them originally at Tractor Supply. Yes, white one eats a lot. Discovering that he may be a meat bird :/

I was just going to say it does appear to look heavier, usually pointing toward it being a meat bird.

The other birds use him as a bed or ledge. He can still waddle/walk but at least one of his legs is unnaturally ginormous compared to other chicken legs.

Only one has green legs.

Easter eggers don't have a standard of perfection to comply with. They can be any color, muffs or not, peacombs or not, greenish legs or not. Their eggs tend to be one pastel color or another. Generally when they don't match up with other breeds they are considered EE's.

I thought that was a meat bird also - poor thing
