I was chicken- watching for my neighbors when they went on vacation recently. They have a really pretty flock. They told me I could do whatever I wanted with the eggs I collected. Of course I wanna hatch them šŸ˜šŸ˜‚
But I would like to narrow down what breeds they are first. I know thereā€™s a Silkie, Amerucauna and a Polish hen but would like to narrow down some others and the rooster as well. Oh and thereā€™s some RIRs in the mix as well.

The rooster is mixed. He has feathers on his legs, a crest and pink legs.

Thereā€™s a Rhode Island Red, Red Sex Link and an Appenzeller Spitzhauben.

The 2 barred hens look like cuckoo Marans, as they have pink legs and less pronounced barring.

Possibly two brown Leghorns.

One Ameraucana or easter egger, though it looks a bit round for an Ameraucana.

If the small white one in pic 3 is a Silkie then itā€™s either mixed or smooth feathered.

The white one in pic 4 is mixed. Wrong leg colour for a Leghorn.

Thereā€™s one at the back of pic 2 I canā€™t quite make out but it looks mixed.

Thatā€™s just assumptions from what I can make out of the pictures :)

My thoughts exactly. Check bottoms of the possible Ameraucana, pretty likely pure if they are white or pink. Pure black Easter Eggers seem to be on the uncommon side
