New breed?

[ClayK2013]

Or hybrid or whatever. Never seen that type color in the tail feathers. I've been buying new chicks at the local Tractor supply yearly. I got two little bantam type roos & these speckled tailed hens. Mostly TS would get in a Rhode Island red variety & these are similair except for the tail. They will pluff their neck feathers out & lol it looks scary. Any ideas on what this breed is? Thanks

Looks like Production reds. It is a hybrid breed.

Roosters Really? They're not crowing at all or mating with the hens.

How old are they and do you have older, dominant roosters? Those guys are absolutely roosters, maybe they just haven't come into their own yet.
