Hello all,
I was given these 12 chickens from a friend. I am very curious to what you think their breeds are.
The Rooster is beautifully colored.

There are 3 frizzles
This one looks like a cochin to me.

The other 2 have oddly straight wings.

Looks like some of your pics didn't load.

If the roo you describe for the first pic is the one on the bottom of the last pic, he looks like an Easter Egger.

The all black hen you described sounds like an ayam cemani or a cross of that breed.

I don't know what the breed of the straight winged frizzle (whose head you can see) is but it looks like a young cockerel to me.
 
It will NOT let me fix the pictures. Hope this works!

The all black hen doesn't look like a full ayam cemani (the ear lobes look like they have a hint of red in them). She definitely has ayam cemani blood though.

The big, colorful roo definitely looks like an EE.

The black frizzle doesn't have feathered feet, so is not a cochin.
 
They all look like Silkie and frizzled chicken (Pekin or something bigger) crosses. The all black hen looks like a Silkie cross, I can see five toes on one of her feet. It's possible there was a BCM in the pen but you can find the black body and copper neck colouring in other birds too
