Shakespeare ~ ???
Duplicate ~ silver laced wyandotte (possibly)
Henriatte ~ gold sex link aka gold comet
black wings ~ possible delaware
henry ~ gold sex link aka gold comet
peppy ~ black australorp
old yeller ~ possible white rock

The only roos I see are possibly the last one and black wings. All the rest are girls

Thanks for the reply people keep asking what kind we have and I didnt know. I am only able to keep one roo so hopefully your right and they arent all roos. thanks again
 
I am 95% positive on the sex links and the australorp and I am thinking that first one is some sort of game breed also female. The delaware might be a different breed but for sure female.
 
Thank you again for the amazingly quick reply now I can tell everyone what they are. And not to sound naive but what is a game breed. thanks
 
Shakespeare= Easter Egger Hen
Duplicate= Easter Egger Hen
Henriette= Red Sex Link Hen
Blackwings= Delaware Rooster
Peppy= Black Australorp Hen
Old Yeller= White Rock Rooster

I like the guessing game
 
I don't see any easter eggers there at all. When I referred to game breeds I was meaning OEGB (Old English Game Bantams) but she could be something completely different as I am not versed in OEGBs. All of them (except the roosters of course

) will lay brown eggs. The first one I can't tell what color her earlobes are so not sure on her. She is the only one that is really giving me trouble.

White earlobes = white eggs
Red earlobes = brown eggs (with the exception of tinted egg layers such as naked necks, EEs, ameraucanas, araucanas, ect)
