I hatched three eggs in June (thought they were bantams) and these are my three adorable little/ big birds. I don't know the breed but they all have hairy legs and one is a lot smaller then the other two.

The one at the front I always thought was a too bit he is now 17 weeks old and though he would be more too like, his tail feathers grew a lot slower then the other two.

This little guy I also think is a roo but again thought he would be more developed by 17 weeks he also has a funny hair do and always had!

Here you can see all three, I've heard no crowing and I am watching them all the time, the two bigger ones are very tame and the little is a little more weary..
Thanks for any help
 
With feathered feet and no crests and single combs I would guess Marans or mix on the cuckoo and mostly black one, the black one is colored pretty much like a Black Copper Marans and the Cuckoo could be X with a Barred Rock or something, at 17? weeks they both look like girls to me. The little one is adorable, silkie or polish X are the obvious choices, can't see comb type. Picture is tiny and far away, but don't see anything that screams roo, but silkies are hard to sex for me.
 
Thanks, here's some more photos!
