Hens and chicks

[ducksanddoxies]

I'm new to chickens (and ducks). I've been helping my grandmother with her chickens. I know she has some Rhode Island Reds but I'm not sure about these. We've got three hens sitting and these are the chicks that have hatched. So, what do we have?!?

I know the little black hen is a Bantam.

The chicks are mixes. One hen looks like a black sex link the other one looks mixed. So no matter the rooster, the babies are mixed. Now if she still has the rir hens and a rir rooster, those chicks would be pure, if there is no other breed of rooster with the rir hens.

Awesome. None of the RIR are broody it doesn't seem, but they are older chickens, too.
