my daughter hatched these at school, any idea what they are?

[will1975]

As the title says these were baby chicks my daughters class hatched for science class when she said her teacher was looking for a home we couldn't refuse but now we are wondering what kind they are. One kind of looks like a barred rock but not sure of the others. Sorry if the pics aren't very good, they still dont let me get very close to them... any ideas? thanks

They are very attractive crossbreds, and the black tailed buff bird is a cockerel.

They kind of look like Homebrew sexlinks. Sometimes people use buffs instead of reds over the barred hen and they look similar to this.

Yeah that one almost looks like a Catalana

Very nice looking flock! I dread if my daughter ever hatches chicks or ducklings in school!!

I think your barred rock is actually a Dominique

They are crossbreds. 99% of "classroom" chickens are mixes.

I agree, very nice looking mixed breeds.
