I am totally new to chickens so am unsure about what I have.
They are all 7-8 weeks old. Purchased at tsc on 4/30 as itty bitty babies.
2 Barred rocks (???) “A” & “B”
2 Rhode Island Reds “C” & “D”
2 Lavender Orpingtons “E” & “F”
1 Buff rock (?) “G”
Based on what I’ve read here on BYC, I think my buff rock (if that breed is correct) is a pullet. And I think one if not both of my black & white birds (barred rocks?) are cockerels. I’m more confident about “B” being male, but think “A” possibly is also? The Lav Orps and RI Reds I keep waffling about (really hoping they aren’t ALL cockerels— I may just be in denial). I hope my photos are good enough. Let me know if I need to get clearer images of anything.
My main questions:
1) How many likely/definite cockerels do I have?
2) What breed(s) are my black & white chicks?
3) Is “G” a buff rock?
So grateful for all the knowledge shared here. Thank you so much for any help you can provide!
