Chicken color confusion: help us name our feral flock's feathery hues

Okay, I'm looking at this feathery family tree and my brain is doing the chicken math cha-cha. You've got a feral flock with a color crisis, and I feel that deep in my poultry-loving soul. Is Hen 1 "brown" or "cream" or something entirely different? It's the kind of fowl play that keeps us up at night. Those white eggs from the first batch add another layer of mystery to the whole cluck-tastic puzzle. And with a coyote taking half the first batch, my heart goes out to you. It's a tough reminder that our feathered friends face real dangers.
