My brother used to trade birds and dogs down that way and some of the birds were brown-reds. I am trying to locate some that might be from what my brother had a about 25 years ago. I have some now but need new blood to cross into one of the lines I have to up size a bit.
 
I got this Momma and chicks at a swap meet. The chicks are 3 months old... Two birchen roos, red pullet and duckwing? pullet. I dont know what Momma is, she has one spur, will growl, and hasn't laid yet in the 3 months that I've had her. She did go through a light molt (tailfeathers for the most part) last month. I'm not even sure if these chicks are hers. Also, I have the boys in a pen by themselves, how long can I leave them together. They seem like they get along fine for now. Are these American or OEGB?

The momma and babies look to be AG. Don't quite know about the others. Sorry couldn't be more help
 
Others could be AG as well.  The greys look like some version of brown red with silver gene.

The babies with Momma are now those two birchen roos and the red and duckwing pullets, they are now 3 months old in the pics of them without Momma.... Like before and after pics LOL :D

Then your birchen stags approximate what we used to call Grave Yard Greys. Hens look similar to stags shown although with less white on body. Chicks would have been born almost black.

Yes they were almost solid black when I first got them, then they started getting a little white around the necks, then down chest, until what they are now, the red leakage was the last color to show up on their backs.
The red pullet was a chipmunk pattern and the duckwing was a all yellow chick.
