What breed

@Hybridchucks

Your birds are red sex links..... there are a number of different "brand names" for them, both here in the UK and in the USA..... ISA Browns, Lohmanns, Golden Comets etc.
You can distinguish red sex links from production reds because they have white flecks and white under fluff and the benefit of them is that they can easily be sexed at hatch by colour.

Production Reds are a RIR/NH hybrid as Eggsighted4Life explained and both male and female are the same colour.

What type of comb does your girl have? If a pea comb I'm thinking perhaps a Buckeye. If it's a single comb then possibly a sex link or more likely a mixed breed bird since there is both dark and white flecks in the feathers.
Ok....what does a pea comb look like?

Here are a couple pictures of pea combs. The lighter chick is a pullet and the darker a cockerel. I think there 12 or 13 weeks old in the picture.
