Mystery Roosters... can you help? (UPDATED WITH MORE PICTURES)

[chickenmama22]

Hi, My friend called me to say that they have 5 roosters too many. She doesn't know what they are, but sent me photos. All of them came from McMurrays as part of a Special Bargain Assortment.

I will guess that this one is a "Buttercup" since she says that the comb is crownlike:

This next one looks like an Andalusian to me. She said it's gray with black shiny neck and red comb.

Finally, here's one that looks like a New Hampshire Red.

I've never seen these breeds in person, so I'm just guessing from the research I've done. Hopefully someone here can help. I may be visiting them tomorrow and will check out the other 2 roosters. All I know now is that one is white with feathers on his feet and the other is black.

Thanks!
Nancy

That last one looks like my Partridge Rock roo but mine is not all that big yet! But I could be wrong... yet once again. Beautiful roos though!!!!!!!

The last one is a Gold Laced Wyandotte. They are all beautiful!

OEGB, you're saying the last one is a Wyandotte because of the outline of the individual feathers? I'm hoping to get a better picture of him later on today.

I searched andalusian eggs on that popular auction site (are we allowed to mention ebay here?) and what I found looks a lot like the first picture.

Now I'm wondering why I would keep generic mottled white roosters around here when I could have some beautiful ones instead! We have a bunch of white roosters that came with our layers from Moyer's. They're only 10 weeks old, but boring. Will they get prettier and/or change significantly as they mature? Right now they are white with an occasional brown feather.

Thanks for the help! I hope to add more pictures tonight.

Wyandottes have rose combs, Rocks have straight combs, Your rooster is rose combed

Nope. Im calling its a Wyandotte cause it is one,lol. Its a Gold Laced Wyandotte. They come in many colors, Gold Laced being one. He's got a Rose Comb and that lacing, GLW to me.

Ok, I'm updating this post with some more pictures of my friend's roosters and chickens.

Roosters first... here's the one that looks like a Buttercup. Are there any other roosters with the circular comb?

Here's a closeup of the comb -

Next we have the one that looks like a Blue Andalusian. Is this what "Blue" looks like or is it really "Black"?

Here's a mystery black rooster:

Here's the mystery white rooster with fuzzy feet:

This is the last rooster that OEGB says is a Golden Laced Wyandotte:

I'm going to look through the hen pictures now and post those in a few minutes.

Thanks for the help! Nancy

Any guesses?

I know nothing about types of chickens, but the roosters are BEAUTIFUL!! I hope they are in a home where one rooster too many isn't an issue?
