Cockerel breeds

[LITTLENELL]

Can anyone just confirm what my 2 boys are? I had 3 of them as rescues at 2 days old.



I was told on another forum, that they were mongrels. This does not bother me, but as they have grown up they do seem to have become rather handsome.

Since this pic, they have grown more, and the smaller black/white is now the biggest! They have magnificent tail feathers and their combs are much larger as are all their facial attributes.

The grey one has a habit of flying at my legs, crowed first and seems to rule the roost along with his chum, the Rhode Island Red cockerel (could work him out!). The black and white is very docile and took 2 months longer to begin crowing!

Maran cross of some sort?

I agree the bi one looks lie a maran cross but the little one looks like a sebright cross.

Thanks for that. Have had to go look up some pics of those, as not suggested breeds before! EEK!

Here are some better pictures.

I agree with Bertie, the top one is probably Marans type, the bottom one is a wyandotte type and silver laced.
