What breed and gender.

[Painted Calls]

My guess is Black Astralorps. @Overo Mare

Look like BAs to me too. I see white skin.

These are my 9 australorps. I know that's what they are (according to feed store and what we ordered), but I'm confused as to whether I should be calling my girls girls or not! I got them in early May when they were just a couple days old, so they're almost three months now. They were all SUPPOSED to be hens. All the same age, but the combs and wattles are so different I am stumped.

I see 3-4 cockerels, individual pictures of them would help

Dang it, that's what I was afraid of! I'll work on more pictures once it cools down. The run is too hot for them right now. I guess we will be learning how to process chickens soon.
