Good evening BYC!

I may be getting one or both of these year old roos this weekend. Any ideas on what breed they are. Sorry don't have a better pic of the red ones face. Assume they are a barnyard mix.

I believe the first is a Dixie Rainbow or Calico princess. The second, black Andalusian or black Leghorn.
Nice, we have 3 calico princess pullets, so would be good. Have one white leghorn pullet..what coloring would we get from breeding her with the black one?

Leghorns are dominant white, bred to a black autralorp, you will get what hatcheries call Austrawhites.
Mostly white chickens with black flecks. 😊
 
The black one doesn’t look like a purebred leghorn or a purebred andalusian to me. He could be a leghorn mix or an andalusian mix, though. The buff rooster is definitely some sort of mix. He isn’t a dixie rainbow or a calico princess since he has the blue gene, giving him gray tail feathers.
