Please help me with my 7 week old chicks!

[Kerri113]

Back in February i decided to let my kids get some chicken eggs from a family member to watch them develop during incubation and then to watch their development as young chicks for a fun school project! At the time i had no plans on keeping the chicks! But i couldn't help but fall in love with them! So, plans for a coop & run were made and i even parted with a few garden beds to make their area as big as possible! We ended up hatching 5 chicks. And now they are 7 weeks old! I know they are most likely barnyard mixed and i think they are most likely meat birds but not 100% positive. Im thinking we have 1 rooster and 4 hens but like i said im very new to this and would like to be sure. Hoping someone can help me with this!

Definitely not meat birds. So far all pictured look like pullets. The breeds they may have in them will become clearer as they get older.

Thanks! Im kinda glad they aren't meat birds! They are all so friendly and curious! They have been a wonderful addition to our family.
