I have a couple what should be Olive Eggers (Majestic Maran × Cream Leg Bar) and the rest are the same Maran over barnyard mix brown egg laying. Majestic Marans are from TSC this last Spring, from Townline Hatchery. They're Black Copper Maran × Barred Rock.
Any guesses on what I have? Pretty sure I have 3 cockerels and 2 pullets, but one has me questioning.

First up, Oliver Eggers. 1-2
1. Cricket.
Pretty sure, female.

2. Pharaoh.
I think male.

Now, Majestic Maran × Barnyard 3-5
3. Dot. Was thinking male with the longer tail feathers, but it's comb is VERY small...?

4. Amore
Another male

5. Flossy.
Female.

Visiting back to say, I discovered Cricket #1 and Flossy #5 are actually from our beloved blue cochin Cockerel!! I expected all Marans, but looks like this guy got in there. I couldn't be more thrilled as we recently lost him to a predator attack, it was evident that he went down fighting and protecting his girls. 😭 He was hands down the best chicken!
