New to chickens

Wow! Thanks for the responses and warm welcome you guys. #dobieliver, I recognized some of the names you mentioned. The Easter egger is a Cockerel you say? It has not attempted crowing...at least not yet. I have one of the bantams, approximately the same age as the Easter egger, who started crowing a few weeks ago. None of the other birds have shown this behavior. When will I know for sure?

And #TwoCrows, thanks for the info. I will check it out.

Have a fabulous rest of your day.

Thanks again.
 
Hello everyone,
I'm a new chicken enthusiast. I don't have much room for chickens as I live in a track home. Yet, I bought 10 chicks from Kahoots here in SoCal and now they're about 3 months old. We're going to keep 3 to 5 of them. I'm just not sure which ones. If anyone can please help me identify the breeds of these I'd really appreciate it.

I'll post some pictures, if ya'll don't mind taking a look and please let me know if you think you know the breed. I'll do some research and decide which to keep based on, well...how noisy they are frankly. Again I live in track housing and i don't want my neighbors bothered to much by their noises. Although I know they can get pretty noisy when they're getting ready to lay.
Thanks in advance.


The black and white spotted one is or may be a barred rock i think? But the 2 white spotted ones with fluffy cheeks/beards are huge and have these big, yellow feet. I think these are some kind of easter eggers? The brown/reddish one I have no idea. The black and grey/lavender ones I have no idea either.

I have 4 bantams ( no pics), one of which is a rooster and those will need to go for sure. They're supper cute, with feathers on their feet and fluffy, curly feathers. But I just can't keep so many.

Anyway, i need all the help i can get. Thanks again.
