What Breed?

[queenbmx4]

I got 10 chicks from a friend. He doesn't know what breed they are. I am hoping that someone can give me some information about them. Thanks for any help you can give.

S/he looks like a Production Red, to me.

Oh I didn't see that part hiding in between the pictures, oops! So if it is a pullet around 4-9 months she'll be laying lighter brown eggs, because this breed has red earlobes. This breed is a good egg layer, and if you handle them, they can be very docile also.

Hatchery roosters are known for being mean, so if it is a rooster, be careful when its around 5 months and above , because that's when most roosters start to show aggression. If there is no aggression over 2 years, then you've got a nice rooster. But to me right now, it looks like a pullet.
