What Breed are these Please

[omoige]

I bought these chickens as fertile hatching eggs along with other mixed breeds. They came out as the only one from their breeds that I bought. Can I get help from you experts out there in telling what breed they are. I am referring to the white and the multi colored chickens in the pictures.

I think the white chicken is a leghorn, and the other one I think is a is an Easter Egger. but I'm not sure I'm really bad at identifying breeds

You have a white rock cockerel, a leghorn would have white ears and be much slimmer; and you have an easter egger... possible cockerel. I can't see its saddle feathers very well to see if they're male or female feathering.

Looks like you have an Easter Egger cockerel and a White Plymouth Rock cockerel.

Multi color is a mixed breed, he does have some of the typical Easter Egger traits though. If you know the white one is from pure bred eggs then its most likely a White Rock. White is a dominant color though so crossbreeding could just as easily produce a bird this color.

I also think the multi color is a mixed breed, but looks a lot like an Easter Egger. We don’t know age since you didn’t say, but the comb/wattle development isn’t that much in the pics and in my EEs, this would look more like my females. When we accidentally had an EE cockerel (butchered around 14 weeks), he had a more red comb.

No comment on the white bird as I don’t have much experience with white chickens. The ear lobe color, leg color, and comb type are 3 factors to use in breed ID for chickens, or at least to narrow it down.

Excellent responses. I know I will get my answers from you experts in this forum.Thanks a bunch f ro all responses.

When I bought the white one, it came with others from Dunlap Hatchery. I have White Leghorn and and WHite Rock. Separating the white chickens I wasn't sure which was Leghorn or the ROck. But When they got older, it got even more difficult to differentiate. However, the white one in the picture looks somewhat different from the other white ones, which are obviously Leghorns. Now it is confirmed that I only have this white Rock from the dozen eggs I bought for the long journey to Nigeria from the US.

Now,my next question is this: Since this is the only white rock rooster that I have and I have 4 Barred Rock hens, what will throwing them together produce? I am currently raising Rhode Island Red, Australorp, Leghorn, Delaware all in the different coops for a common purpose of producing eggs for commercial consumption, but purely organic and from purebred chickens or hybrids from such.
