Hello, I'm new to this forum and to raising chickens. I've thought about it for awhile but had no plans to move forward until my nephews girlfriend bought 5 chicks and put them in her walk in closet. When her mother found out she hit the roof so they needed a new home so I bit the bullet and took these little ones in. My problem is I have no idea what I have! Are these laying hens or roosters or what? I'll attach a picture or two and if anyone with more experience than me can identify what I have that would sure help me understand what I've gotten myself into!

 
You should post up close pics of the chicks - it will help others identify them easier :) You can also ask her where she bought them - if it was a tractor supply store or feed store you can stop by & look at the breeds being sold there. Be cautious though because sometimes chicks are mislabeled but it would be a start. Best of luck :) There is also great info in the learning tabs above.
 
Hi I have a few other pics that maybe will help. They all have 4 toes and the two that are the same (yellow head with grey wings) have some feathering on their legs. They were bought from a farmer when they were a day or two old and the sex and types are not known. Any help would be appreciated. :)
