What are we????

[giddyup0889]

I bought about 20 chicks in a span of about a month and now I cant remember what breeds they were supposed to be... and some of them are starting to look a lot like roosters to me...
Any help on what breed/gender you think these might would would be greatly appricated! Thanks!


Rhode Island? Male or Female?

\\


Golden Comet and White Rock (I think)? Male Or Females?

I have no clue what this is... but I THINK its a hen?

What breed? Male or Female?

What breed? Male or Female?

The top one looks like a red sex-link hen. The second two, the red one has the wrong color legs for a sex-link. I have no idea what it might be. If the white one has red earlobes, I would agree that it is a rock. The third one looks like an EE, but it might be a rooster. Hard to tell from that picture. How old is it? The fourth is an EE roo. The last one looks like an EE pullet.

What is EE?




The second and third pictures are the same chickens.. They are about 14 weeks old? I believe. Do you think the ones Im referring to are roosters?

Easter Egger I''ve always assumed. You're in for some cool colored eggs!

An Easter Egger. The hatcheries usually sell them as aracauna or ameraucana, but the hatchery ones are really EEs.

EE = Easter Egger... okay.

I think the white rock and golden comet seem to both be roos....

1 red sexlink (aka golden comet) hen
2 not golden comet, maybe RIR or NHR hen
3 white rock or leghorn hen
4 EE hen or roo
5 EE roo
6 EE hen

EE are crossbreeds that lay colored eggs, they can look like anything and lay any color if egg. Hatcheries sell them as pure breeds.

On the red hen in your 2nd and 3rd pictures, does she really have white legs? Rhode Island Reds and New Hampshire Reds neither one have white legs. I have no idea what red chicken does!

Maybe a cross?
