How Big is a Full Grown Hen?

[Acre4Me]

I have 10 hens and I want to know how big they will get. I have a Cuckoo Maran,Blue Andalusian, 2 EE, RIR, Buff Orpington, Welsummer, Black Sumatra, Black Australorp, and a New Hamshire Red. I don't know how much they are supposed to grow. Does anyone have any pictures of you holding a hen or a size comparison of any kind?? Thank you!!

The Black Australorp Cockerel is facing camera. The Black Jersey Giant, who is larger, is middle of the top roost, and the female Black Jersey Giant is on bottom roost right side (yes, they are big!). 3 Black Australorp pullets top roost Left to right (#1, #4, #7) - they are a good size. The EE pullets are top roost Left to right (#3, #6). They are all approx 7.5 months old. However, the group of 7 birds on the left side, bottom roost are only approx 8-9 weeks old (there is a bantam EE in that small group - is #3 from the left). HTH

These are my chickens. What is the verdict? Tried to keep roosters out I think they are full grown.

Nice pics! Of your breeds, I only have Black Australorp and EE. They look on the younger side, not quite fully filled in yet (so not quite fully grown. How old are your birds? You indicated pullets (under 1 year old), but how many months? Are they all laying yet?

NO one is laying yet but I saw today my Black Australorp was mating so I think that she will lay soon but not quite sure if mating always leads to eggs soon after! 1 is almost 8 months will be on the 26th and all others are 6 months.
