What breed are our chickens?

[cdahl383]

Hi, we're new to the chicken world, just picked up some chickens from my friend last weekend. We're still learning as we go. Can someone tell me what breed our hens and rooster are? Here are a few pics...

My friend said he had to separate his roosters as they were getting too aggressive with the hens, which is why some of them are missing feathers on their backs. I'm hoping they grow back over time. So far, the rooster we have doesn't seem to be too aggressive with them.

The rooster looks like a maran and for the hens: buff orpington, Rhode island red, golden laced wyandotte, and barred rock are the ones I can tell.

Just guessing, but I think you have a Buff Orpington hen, a Rhode Island Red hen, a Barred Rock hen, a Black Star (Black Sex Link) hen, and I don't know what the others are.

I believe you have 2 Black Sex Links, a Red Sex Link, Rhode Island Red (or Production Red), Buff Orpington, Barred Rock, and a possible mixed breed rooster. He's definitely not a Marans.....wrong leg color. And I don't see any Wyandottes.

Cool thanks! Yeah we weren’t sure what the rooster was. His name is Waylon though haha!
