I've done my fair share of googling, and I'm turning to the extensive knowlage of everyone on BYC for a little help figuring out these breeds of some of my chickens.
First, is this one. I saw this poor baby dying of a heat stroke at a flee market a time ago, and the person I saved it from didn't even know if it was a pullet or not, much less it's breed. I've always called it a Golden Comet even tho I'm not entirely sure. Ideas?
Second, is this Rooster. Someone dropped him at my place telling me he was part Rhode Island Red, part Game. I know fighting out a mixed chickens breed is harder, but does anyone have an idea what kind of Game rooster? At Tractor Supply I've seen pictures on some of the feeds of a rooster similar to him, but I can't figure out what.
Third, is quite a mix up. A long time ago I found a black hen with some some and brown in my hands, and I tried for the longest time to figure out its breed. One day she sat on a clutch of eggs and hatched them. Shortly after, our newest memeber to the dog pack tore her apart, but luckily it if the eggs she hatched was hers so her legacy continued. I'm pretty sure her father is the rooster above, and her mother looked almost exactly like her, except a little less brown. She's only the smaller side, definitely not a large meat bird. She's a frequent layer and broody often (like her mom)
