Help me to pair birds for breeding!

Oh wow, it’s really going to be difficult to know. As they get older maybe some of the pros can ID whether or not they are purebred. I mostly just know silkies and a few other breeds so I couldn’t say for sure if any of yours are purebred.

I doubt that they are if all those chickens are free ranging together, lol.

With that many breeds I would guess that they are more of a small scale hatchery or something. Probably separated into pens by breed, but also probably have some mixed pens for certain egg colors etc.

That's sort of the plan I'm going for once I get setup better. I'd breed for temperament first then play around and see what egg colors I can get.
