First up is this big jobber. 9 weeks old. I would hope it's a pullet. All the markings of a black sexlink pullet, maybe a more brown than normal but I have seen other pullets like this.

Second up. I believe this to be a cockeral black sexlink. Has a few brown feathers around the neck but also has some white/smoke grey colored feathers on his belly. And a few white flecks in his feathers on his shanks.

Third guy. Once again I think this is a cockeral black sexlink. A few brown feathers around his neck. Smoke grey colored feathers on his belly and sides.

The first hen looks like an EE girl. Too light to be a black star. The other pictures- sex-link males would not look like that. They'd be barred. If they are boys- it's from some other cross. They look more like black sex-link hens than the first pict.
 
I think all 3 are pullets and they look like they have green legs.
So Easter Egger cross may even be american game cross.
 
Ok, I'm going out on a limb here but on MY screen, those are all very likely black sexlink pullets. The legs look black washed, not green. The 'smokey grey' is throwing me, so they could just be mutts. They are NOT EE's. Where did you get them?
 
These guys came from the local feed and seedm free chick day, 10 free chicks with the purchase of 50lbs of feed.
 
By the way, I am at work right now posting via black berry. Got a few other pictures on this thing but it won't let me upload.
As for the chicks, further explanation: garaunteed to be straight run. No one knew what the breeds were. I got a buttercup, barred rock, light brahma, white rock and these things.
