Hoping you can tell me

I will try to get a better shot of all 4 later, those 4 are the only ones that don't like to get cuddles when I go out to Check on the whole flock. All the others come up to me and get attention. Only one (Harry) crows, but I know Ron is a rooster because he looks just like Harry just smaller. I'm really hoping the 2 whites-whatever-they-are are hens, because if they are roos I would have to rehome 3 of them, because hen to roo ratio would be to high.

And since I looked up welsummer roos, I will agree Harry and Ron are that breed, they look identical to the pictures (my pictures don't do them justice)

If they have red earlobes they are Welsummers. White earlobes and they are brown Leghorns.

I had one like the top two pics this year
The boy was a light Sussex/ brown leghorn cross. Leg color on yours is Willow green or slate? Mine was white legs
I go for a light Sussex cross of some kind.

So the 2 chickens I asked about (Snickers and Twix) are now being either picked on or something because both are missing tail feathers and bleeding. I can't take a picture til my husband gets home, so I have them in a cat carrier until I figure out what to do

Do you have a coop for them or just a sheltered run? Not seeing any secure, nighttime shelter for them. If they are roosting/sleeping near the chainlink fencing, it could be a raccoon reaching in that pulled the feathers out.

They have a coop that is enclosed, the run is fully enclosed and also has hardwire cloth all around it
