Also I just got this small egg today, what’s going on with it? I only have normal size hens.

The red one does have feathers on her legs.I can't tell from the picture but if the 3rd one doesn't have feathers on her legs then that looks like a rhode island red hen. The other 3 roosters are really pretty but I'm not sure on the breeds.
I wasn’t sure if having the bantam roosters in there would change the egg size.1 is maybe a red sex link/bantam Cochin mix male
2 is probably an old English game bantam mix male
3 is a production Rhode Island red female
4 is a mixed breed male
Pullets just starting off laying often lay tiny eggs. And sometimes grown hens can lay a few small ones as well. I wouldn't worry unless it continues for a while.

#1 can’t be a cochin x red sex link since he has a beard, he must have another breed in there or is a different mix.1 is maybe a red sex link/bantam Cochin mix male

My neighbor just shows up with random chickens.Where did you get them?
In that case, I agree that #1 is a cochin mix and #2 is a game bantam mix. #3 is not a pure RIR due to her feathered legs, she’s an RIR mix. #4 is definitely mixed, but I’m not sure with what.My neighbor just shows up with random chickens.![]()
