Not sure what chicken breeds I have

[Rhodebar Lover]

All are Red Sexlinks. The bird with white hackles is a different strain of sexlink. Those with black hackles/rose or single combs are Cinnamon Queens!

None have pea combs. A few have rose but this is the most common comb type in Cinnamon Queens since they are part Wyandotte.

Thanks! It's hard to keep up with all of these new mixes.

So the wrinkly comb is called a rose? One of the dark brown ones has a spiky comb could that still be a Cinnamon Queen or is that something else?

This past june, I purchased what I had thought were six Cinnamon Queen hens. When I got home, I realized that three of them were not cinnamon Queens. They were something else, and I have no idea. I thought they might be Starlight Green Eggers, but since they all started laying, none of them are green. So I don't know what I have. I have dark brown eggs which I believe are from the cinnamon Queens and lighter pinkish tan eggs that I thought could be from Easter eggers, and I've tried to research which hens lay that color egg and the photos of the hens don't match what I have. I'll attach photos of my chickens and their eggs. I don't know which chicken is laying which egg because I obviously don't see them lay their eggs. I have three dark brown hens which I thought were all Cinnamon Queen but two of them have a squishy wrinkly comb and one of them has a standard chicken comb and the Golden tan hens all have the same spiky comb. The dark brown chickens aren't keen on being touched, but the Golden brown chickens love to be petted

These are an assortment of eggs from my 4 Golden Comets. I've never gotten anything too much lighter in color from my gals. One of mine does have a dusty bloom that makes her eggs pinkish in color but once they've been in the refrigerator for awhile, they turn the same color brown as the rest.

Yes. Single combs (aka the most common comb type that's also seen in Red Junglefowl) can also be found in Cinnamon Queens

The pea comb, brown is possibly Buckeye.

I didn't see anything buckeye there. Good looking birds though.
