    7 weeks old gender guess (Legbar, Araucana and Olive Egger)

    Around 12 weeks now, they don't seem to have changed much in the past 2 weeks. As far as I understand, aside from the obvious Legbar cockerel, the only one that could be a male is the Olive Egger number 6, but I can't see any pointy feathers so far. What do you think?

    A gentle sloworm, saved from the hens! Actually, I only saved 80% of it! :rolleyes:

    7 weeks old gender guess (Legbar, Araucana and Olive Egger)

    Thank you. Actually number 5 has zero pink: her comb is reassuringly yellow, this is why I'm having some concerns, but I would expect more red in 10 weeks cockerels... time will tell!

    Hi, we're about 10 weeks old today. Cream Legbars need no further study, but I'm curious about the Araucanas and the only OE I kept. Number 4 and 5 are the Araucanas and number 6 is the OE. I'm pretty sure that 5 is a pullet, but I don't know if pink in 4 and 6 combs is too much. What do you...

    "Male specific" coloring in EE/OE?

    Thank you! I was asking the same question about a reddish OE that look like your second EE, happy to know she was a pullet! :)

    Hiking!!!

    Has anyone else been on a nice hike at Easter? We've been on Monte Bano, a small but steep mountain with many abandoned villages almost completely buried by vegetation that I love to explore. We also had some interesting meeting: an alpine newt, a green lizard and a young roe deer!

    Hiking!!!

    Hi, hiking in Northern Italy here! This spring has been foggy so far, but I love these atmospheres and being chilly I'm happy when I see flowers start to bloom again: cold is finally over! I often wander with my dog in my mountains, these pictures where taken on tuesday on Monte Capenardo, which...

    These are my first Legbar, so I'm new to this breed, but 1 and 2 are currently much darker and have very smaller and yellower combs than 3, this is why I guess 1 and 2 are pullets and the only male is 3... but we'll see! I hope I have at least a couple so someday in the future I'll have some...

    Correct: there's nothing strange in number 4 leg, it's just the picture! :) Thanks for all your inputs, basically I'll have to wait! 7 and 8 are going away today so I won't be able to update their pictures. I'll ask to the person who's taking them what will they turn out to be!

    Hi, these chicks are supposed to have been born around February 24th (this is what the seller said, but some of them seem younger to me!). First picture was taken on March 6th, second picture was taken on April 7th and all single pictures were taken today. 1, 2 and 3 are Legbar and pretty easy...

    5 weeks old black copper and blue copper marans sexing

    Oh, now I see: this one actually seems be a male. The others still seem to be pullets to me, but I only watch how big and how much pink combs and wattles are. My pullets developed tails at very different rates and I had cockerels who didn't have bigger legs at all... so tails and legs mean...

    We love pictures for sure! :D They all seem pullets to me, which one of these do you think is a male?
