What gender are these?

We only had one egg from the easter egger (green). All of the others were shades of brown. Can't remember if there was a white one. But am positive only 1 green egg.
In that case, the Easter Egger chick is probably one of the ones that you had thought came from a Speckled Sussex (the chick with the pea comb.)

And the chick you had thought came from the Easter Egger would actually have come from a different hen. I'm guessing he may have the Rhode Island Red for his mother.
 
So I have eight chicks that will be five weeks old tomorrow. I got the hatching eggs from my daughter and we *think* we know what breed/breed mix they are. At least we know what the choices are. LOL The rooster for all of the chicks is a Speckled Sussex. Trying to determine the gender of each. These things are so hard to get pics of so I may need to try again for you guys. I'm going to be each of the eight in a different reply on this thread so as to hopefully not be too confused.

Here is a pic from a week ago of all 8 chicks together just for an overview of what I have.
From Left to Right (Rooster is Speckled Sussex for all eight so I will just list the Hen for each chick)
1. Ancona, 2. Easter Egger, 3.??Possibly Ancona, 4. Buff Cochin (feathered feet), 5. Pure Speckled Sussex, 6. & 7. Buff Orphington (no feathered feet for these 2)
and the one by itself is 8. Pure Speckled Sussex.

The only other breed of chicken she has that seems to not be represented here is a Rhode Island Red.

KEVIN YOU HAVE A DAUGHTER WHAT?!?!?!
Sorry this is Kevin's mom. I'm fixing to create my own account. At the time I thought I just needed to ask one question but I see the problem that poses. LOL It is Kevin's sister who has the parent chickens.

Oh ok I was wondering if it was something like that!

What a relief 😂

I was wondering why Kevin wasn’t making as many typos as usual… 😏


Anyway, nice to meet you!
 
They are all beautiful! Anyone want to try and figure out these? They are all girls, I believe. White ones, leghorns. But the black ones??? Thanks
