I have no idea I don't know a thing about rainbows but from our talk today they make great meat chickens and grow fast as I can say on that part to be true little guys have grown very fast and has me thinking of a pair just to see how they do
The two in the picture
It looks like americana, turken and maybe more breeds.
this is a lesson learned. You can never really trust people who sell eggs. (or give them away)
You will get stung nine times out of ten.
I once knew a lady who had those long tailed chickens. every one she hatched, she would call it a Phoenix. I kept telling her, the long tail doesn't make it a purebred Phoenix. You have another mutt. I could never convince her otherwise, . She is probably still doing it. I haven't heard from her for over ten years..
Just beware of anybody selling eggs who has more than one breed of chickens.
If you are really interested in having one particular breed, get yourself a trio of that breed and save your own eggs.
In the mean time, develop a taste for chicken soup..

As long as the buyer is fully aware that they're "barnyard mixes" or "easter eggers" and priced suitably, then OK. Though it seems the OP wanted to cross his barred rock rooster on some wyandottes - and would (will) be creating barnyard mixes of his choosing.
