They're laying breeds. Dominickers (also spalled Dominique) were the first breed of chicken in America and look kinda like a barred rock.
GSLs are a hybrid bird made by crossing a Rhode island red and a Rhode island white (or something like that). They're really sweet from my research and so far experience as well.
Both breeds are brown eggers, which we didn't know til after we got em. Funny it worked out that way.
The bantams are the first chickens we bought. They came with the coop/run we got from some the next town over. The two(?) hens should be laying soon I think.
Oh!! We use also have those! Dominickers. Now I know the English word, thanks @nateonsteemit. The Afrikaans is Koekoek.

How's that pronounced? You just named the other one :)

You'd pronounce it kind of like cook! Cook cook! Which is probably very simply an imitation of the sound a chicken makes. Some of the Afrikaans words are very descriptive. This one, not so much!

Awesome! Looking at the breeding they are similar to the dominickers, but a younger breed. Very similar appearance :)

I assume the Dutch pronunciations are the most accurate due to heavy Dutch influence in SA.
Ain't the internet grand? :)
