Man oh man. I swear every day I think I know, then I change my mind. Hahaha

This is my first post here, looking for some help :)

I really can’t tell if they are all hens or if a few are cockerels. I bought 8 of them, was sent 11 from Meyers.

2 NH Reds
2 Plymouth Rocks
5 Barred Rocks
2 Buff Orpington's

Thank you so much :)

I will be able to respond with questions and more pictures quickly, super appreciate the help :)

Wow! Most people don’t get all pullets, you were fortunate. I only wanted one boy, but I got 1 extra I have to rid of and one super odd chicken, just wondering when do they start crowing?

My Orpington didn't crow till he was around 5-6 months...every Wyandotte cockerel I ended up with ( 5 so far ) has crowed at 4-6 weeks, and one of my Orp hens was trying to crow and she is almost 3 years lol. So depends on the breed and the bird itself IMO.
