I have 2 almost 12 week old juvenile chickens that I need guesses on what breed they could be? I got them as an egg from a mix batch from some wild chickens in my yard so I have no idea what breed they could be I will post both of them 1 is white and brown and one is black with a blue tint, with a little white on the last feather of its wing

What do the "wild" chickens in your yard look like? Without knowing that, I'd say they'd be considered a backyard mix. The light brown bird looks kinda leggy and they both have that longer tail so I might guess they could be some type of gamefowl mix. 🤷‍♂️ Also it looks like you have a few boys in there...

Game mixes. The cream/red one is female and the black one is male. By the way, all of the visible Rhode Island Reds in the photos are males as well. It would seem the little cream/red girl is your only female bird.

Edited to add: I can just barely see one female Rhode Island Red pullet peeking out from the side in the 2nd to last photo.
So you have 2 female birds pictured in total.
The rest are males.

X2, exactly what was going through my head. I think the black male could be a black sumatra mix possibly but I am not positive.

So the rooster that's runs around here looks like a red chest game and the the hen is saw on the nest before she got killed by the stray cats looked like an Astra white maybe. And yes the other 4 are RIR's i had gotten to grow up with the rest of my flock as my laying hens are getting older so they are not laying are much but I ended up getting 3 crockrels out of the 4.

The lighter one looks very similar to a White Laced Red Cornish, but the pattern/color seems to be muted, so it's probably a cross or mix

Here's a picture of the one I had, she was a bantam 20251124_160114.jpg
