Hi. We have eight chickens (all hens), of somewhat mysterious origins. The first four are the youngest, still growing:










We believe this screamer's a Plymouth Rock?




Here are our four eldest, full-grown but of unknown age:


We're pretty sure the skinniest one with the white cheeks is a brown leghorn:

We were told she might be a Rhode Island?


Is she a Wyandotte?


We're guessing the red one's a New Hampshire. She's hard to get a shot of alone.


So far they've been mostly grouping in First Generation, Second Generation - and these photos show that. Haven't gotten any pics of the full gang yet.

The first chicken is a Red Sex Link pullet. The next two are mixed breed pullets. The screamer is a Barred Plymouth Rock if it's legs are yellow. If it's legs are pink it is a Cuckoo Marans. In the next photos: The chicken that is solid red is a production red. The black and white chicken is a Silver Laced Wyandotte. The one that is with white earlobes is a Light Brown Leghorn. The one that is brown with red earlobes looks like a mix or maybe a poor quality Welsummer

x2. I think I was too lazy to write it all down, but @Rhodebar Lover looks like she got all of them correct.

Thank you!

On the red one (Sandy), we looked up the production red versus the New Hampshire descriptions and pictures, and she still does seem to resemble a New Hampshire more, both in temperament and appearance. Her eggs are less poignantly spotty than the production reds' I've seen, too.

You're welcome. Technically speaking there is little or no difference between Production Reds and hatchery quality RIRs and NHs as hatcheries are mainly concerned with egg production rather than meeting APA standards. If the Production Reds turn out with a darker red feathering (closer to mahogany), the hatcheries market them as RIRs. If their feathering is lighter (closer to chestnut), they market them as NHs. If the red shade is somewhere in the middle or very uneven, the hatcheries market them as Production Reds.

Aha! Thank you for clarifying. This is my first week of chicken-tending, so there's plenty of terminology that I haven't made sense of yet.
