Just to be clear, I understand it is probably too early to tell what sex these dudes are, I have my guesses, but I'm a total noob when it comes to chickens. I'm mostly curious what this chicken (chicken #1) really is because I have a feeling like "azure" isn't actually a recognized breed.

I bought these from a breeder in my area on March 18th, they were already a few days old. And had leg tags which I took off right away because I was certain that I could tell them apart...haha I'm not so sure anymore. But that's all the fun. They were not sexed. Out of the 9, 4 of them had tags and were "azure" mix. Which I'm guessing are an EE, or OE rather. Possible adults were RIR, BR, and what he called "azure". 🤔 I have 4 red colored, 2 black with red starting to show, 2 BR looking, and 1 that is lighter and has the cutest little tail.

So here is chicken #1 (this is the "lighter one") no idea what he is. But my bet is he is a he.

Next are the BR. There are two lighter chest and darker chest.

The three I expect are pullets are similar to this one. So to save time I will just post her, and the 4th that has alot more black, and I suspect to be another cockerel.

Ok that's it for photos. Once again. Not looking for sex unless you feel like you want to guess, I'd love the opinion, mostly looking for what breeds you all think they are. :)

P.s. should I make a similar post for my 5 silkies for fun, I really feel like I know which are pullets and which are cockerels(even though everyone says you can't tell...) also because they are FREAKIN adorable. Let me know :)

1,2,3,5, and 9 look to be cockerels.

You could make a post for your silkies, if you want to! Though they can be difficult to sex until older than other breeds, there are a few silkie experts on here that may have some guesses!
 
I really am just looking for what mix we think they might be, are they EEs? Are any of them looking like an actual breed? I will be giving away some of the cockerels so I'd like to be able to give people and honest opinion of what they might be :)
