What color breed is this hen?

those all look like pullets.

Hi,
So both the white and the brown could be hens? They are all in the same coop so we are worried if they are cockerels they will fight.

Hmm thought it might be Wyandotte barnevelder crossbred

It is a cross, but of a solid bird like a RIR rooster over a barred breed like a barred rock. The hens come out like that and the roosters will be barred.

I am going to sound stupid here but what does barred mean? I am learning as we go. the chicks were going to be destroyed so I took them. My wife said the white ones fight a bit so she thought they must be roosters. I would be over the moon if they are all hens or at least if the white ones were. Thanks for your help.
