I believe Black star is a RIR or NH roo over Barred Rock hens. The female chicks will be born solid black, the boys with a spot on the head

Red Star is RIR or NH roo over Delaware hens and the females are born red, the boys white.

Good luck!

I think the black is RIR Roo X barred rock hen and red is RIR roo X Delaware hen.
