What breeds are these?!

[chickennuggets]

Hi all,

Newbie here, have kept Rhode Island Reds before. A friend is giving me three of her hens next week as I'm starting again. She hatched them from eggs as a school project and lost the sheet with the breed details so I was wondering could you identify them for me please?

Thanks!

Hi there! well the speckled Hen appears to be a Speckled Sussex or at least Speckle Sussex Blooded. I can't quite tell if she has a single comb or not? If she has a rose comb she will almost certainly be a cross.
The Black hen with the crest and a silver neck, looks to be a cross. she maybe a mixture of some of the 'New' Colouredbackyard Hybrids or Possibly a Silver Sussex or Norfolk Grey X Legbar or Araucana.
The same applies for the non crested Black hen with the silver neck. There's an outside chance she's a Norfolk Grey, but it's more likely she's a mixture.

The one at the back has the head and neck of a Crested Cream Legbar, twisted comb and raised head feathers. The tail is right shape as well but she's far too dark. Wonder if she will lay blue or green eggs?

The speckled bird is definitely a speckled sussex. She looks exactly like mine and has a very small comb the same, not a rose comb, but very small. Not sure about the others, but I would also say they are possibly silver sussex cross.
