What breed are my new chickens?

[cluckmecoop7]

I just picked up 9 new chickens today and was wondering if you could help me out with the breeds I don't know.

Spoiler: #1

Spoiler: #2

Spoiler: #3

What breed are all the red chickens in the background of this picture?

Thanks.

Bird #1 looks like a California tan perhaps.

Bird #2 Is a RIR

Bird#3 is a barred plymouth rock

Birds in background of bird #3 look like red sex links.

California White you mean? That's what I was thinking too.

Cold you get better photos of the ones behind the Plymouth Rock?

You sure about that?

The small white one with the black flecks could be a California White or one of the other similar white egg hybrids such as the Ideal 236.

How old is she? Her comb is a good bit smaller than my California White's comb, but if she's not laying yet that's normal.

The red ones could be Production Reds.

Yup, RSLs.

I just got these chickens, she hatched last spring.

 

[cherrynberry]

You sure about that?

Well, it isn't due to the shank color. Where did you get them from?

 

[cherrynberry]

I'm actually keeping these chickens for about 4 months before they go back to their previous owner. Long term chicken-sitting I guess.

Do you know where she got them from?

I am betting on #1 being a random cross. Not a specific hatchery cross of any sorts. Just a mutt. Oh, but she likely has WL blood.
