I hatched out an assortment from MM and this is what I got. Their personalities are as different as their looks. They are all about 9 weeks old. I have an idea what some are, but exactly what would you call these.

I know the photos aren't the best, but what do you think? All I know for sure is that I got my share of roosters from all the crowing going on!

Thanks for looking!
 
Well, #1,3,5, and possibly 6 are roos. #1 looks like it could be a Minorca or an Andalusian. #2 looks like a Leghorn. #3...I dont know! #4 looks like an Americauna (the reddish one...it looks like a mixed color) and the black and white looks like a Light Brahma. #5 looks like another Leghorn and I cant tell on the other one. #6 (if its feet are feathered...I cant tell from the pic) looks like it could be a Cochin...this one is a little tough.
Let me know what everyone else thinks!!

Minora or andalusion cockerel.. Im not sure..

White rock pullet,

Ancona cockerel,

Possibly EE (or is it a ameracauna ? You decide i guess professionalisms-a-zims.) cockerel (im pretty sure 80%). Light brahma pullet.

Maybe White rock pullet or rooster, im not sure without seeing the feathers well.. looks like a hen though, rooster beside it (Brown leghorn).

looks sort of like a black cochin hen.. does it have feathered legs?

Thanks guys!

The last one (poor photo) does not have feathers on its legs like the brahma one does. Its legs are black though.

The black&white one and the brown&black one seem to do all the crowing. I keep watching for the others with combs to crow but haven't caught them at it yet.
 
OK.
DTchickens knows his chickens!

Also agree with Rootball on the black one. I was trying and trying to look at all the photos here on BYC and other sites but there are so many breeds I was going crazy. Thanks to you guys I can now tell others what I have with some confidence. Can't wait to tell the wife and kids what we got.
