What do I have?

[cjsgrlsx3]

I have just picked up some more hens and a rooster (I think) and wanted some help to identify them! What do you think? Breed guessing would be nice also! Darn, once I figure out how to post photos, I will be closer to knowing what I have!

Hope this worked!

I'm new to chickens so I can't guess, but shes pretty. Looks like you have a busy rooster, though, from the backs of your other girls.

The hens are actually molting. I was told that the grey one is a rooster and was hatched this past Spring. Wondering if anyone has any thoughts on if it is a rooster of hen

I think the gray one is a boy, it seems the hackle feathers are rather pointed. Even if your girls are molting, they have been well "loved". After they get their feathers, aprons might protect them next year. My hens look like that, and I had a feather picker and they are gently but well loved.

lol "Well Loved" So I do have a rooster then. He is young so I believe he is not the one that has done the deed with these girls. Will their feathers grow back and become normal? Do you have an idea on what kind they are?

The blue one looks a bit like a Blue Orpington, but his type is not quite right. Maybe a mixed breed. It is a rooster.

What about this little lady?

Definitely a mixed breed hen. I'm not good at guessing which breeds are mixed in there.
