hi

[mikensara]

I will start by introducing myself. I am a stay at home mom with all 4 children starting school in the fall. I decided to spend time with a small hobby of 2 chickens given to us by a friend. one is black unsure of what shes a mix of just that shes beautiful and unique. The other given to us is a red sex link. We then aquired 12 baby chicks. We lost one within a few hours of getting them home. We decided on a mixture we picked up at a farm store. We now have 6 amerucanas (as this is what they were sold to us as) 2 tetra tints and 3 red sex links. I would like to try to identify if there are any roos and will post pics soon. Thank you for letting me join this site i would greatly like to gain as much knoledge on my chickens.

Good luck! I'm sure you will be able to find answers to any questions you have here on BYC.
When you get your pics ready, you can post a new topic at this link https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewforum.php?id=15 for gender/breed identification.

Thank you that will be so very helpful. while the 6 sold to us as amerucans really intrigue me one is white with very long tail feathers and greyish legs, the 4 others are all sorts of colors and unique with the grey legs, and the last one really intrigues it has not much of a tail at all lol.
