i hunted down on google breeds of chickens and came across what i think are the breeds. 

if i can, ill put photos of each for comparison, but for now here are reference pictures i found. 

btw im gonna put the "name/nickname/breed"  ex. #21. "tom/ jerkface/ human" 


1. Maurice/ brown one / brown Sussex chicken

this is the one i had no difficulty with, i know Maurice is a boys name, i named her after a you tuber who is semi-known for being scared easily and not wanting to do anything scary, which is how she was when she was a chick.
if i dared to take her an inch away from the others, she would squawk and whine, getting louder and louder until your ears hurt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~``

2. Mara/ Myra / gold Sex-Link

this one i also had trouble with, i named her Mara because of her gold feathers, and because she used to be an angel who would cuddle up to me. she was thought to be a leghorn but was quickly realized to be a sexlink.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 3. Midnight/ the hell chicken/ black Sex-Link

this one was easy to identify, she got her nickname because she would always be the biggest, strongest, and meanest, its hard to feed her because she with stand in front of you, and end up tripping you, if you have food or anything, she, along with every other hen, with chase you down and grab it without mercy.  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`~~~~
 
4. Ebony /feisty one, dominecker / California grey or Plymouth 
      (image is almost spot on!)

she is a probably the most popular one, she is the smallest but the funniest and most feisty. being small allows her to fly around 
(because they are all un-clipped) and take stuff, shell randomly chases anything. She will sit on you and stare but if you try to hold her and make her sit, she wont have it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

5. Robin /adventurous one, speckled one /speckled Sussex

she is probably the most dull, and does not like to be held. But she does like to wonder, and like Ebony is the one that gets lost. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

6. Mehrunes Dagon/ snake victim, meh-rune/  Maran

she has an interesting story. So, when we got her, we thought she was a Brahma. She was also the bully of the group. But we realized later, when she had not gotten any fluffy feet like other Brahmas that she must be another breed, but we had no idea what.  Soon after we were letting them stay in the coop overnight, a snake attack her. She was fine with only minor injures and healed quickly. But then, while spraying a thing down, she stepped in front of the hose and got soaked, so i had to sit outside with a towel drying her off. 
(it barely gets cold here but, she was still not happy) 
now, she makes sure that nothing can get to her, by being very reflexive.



so those are my chickens, my family says that i talk about them to much. (i probably do)
