gender 7 week

Was told it was "a gold star" but I don't know :/ his/her tail is growing in miraculously slowly and is much much smaller than the 4 other chicks I got at the exact same time. I know there are late bloomers.. but they are all 7 weeks old and this one is half the size of the others. According to...

Hello! We got a large mixture of chicks 7 weeks ago. They’re about 7.5 weeks old now. One i did not order but received is what i believe to be a Golden Laced Wyandotte. It lost a good amount of feathers. No mites or lice detectable. I’m afraid it could’ve been a heat lamp/over crowding issue in...

I think I have three pullets and three roos between my six birds. Thoughts? Any guesses on adult colors also welcome! #1 Roo? #2 Roo? #3 Pullet? #4 Pullet? #5 Roo? (Black Silkie) #6 Pullet? (Blue Silkie) Please let me know your guesses for 1-6!! (And if you want additional pictures of...

I have a GL Wyandotte in question. She has always been bigger than her other Gold Laced sisters and developed feathers and wattles/comb quicker than the others. I know that this is usually a sure sign of a roo, but I've also seen a couple on here that turned out to be hens. I noticed this...

Hello! I got a few pullets a few weeks ago. My australorp is one week older than the rest. I had chickens on our farm two decades ago… sadly I lost all knowledge. I do believe my Australorp pullet is looking much more Roo like. It’s a shame because this one is the smartest and nicest bird we...

Hi! I have 4 straight run Ameraucanas that are 7 weeks old - 2 are Roos, 1 is a pullet and then we have mystery chicken here. What are your thoughts? The comb is more red in the photo than in real life and also isn’t as red or as big as the Roos - which is why I’m stumped. 😂 Photos of the comb...

thoughts on if it's a young roo or pullet please about 10-12ish weeks old

I have four 6 week old chicks that I got as straight run black ameraucanas. 2 black & 2 were supposed to be splash but they look more blue. I need help figuring out whether they’re hens or roos please. Some have tails, short tails, almost no tails, muffs, and no muffs. So confused, haha. The red...

I stopped into a feed store today and saw these two sad looking birds sold as 1/3 of the chick price. They’re in rough shape and very flighty. I was told that they’re 7 weeks old and pullets. Any ideas?

Hi all! I just joined this community, looking for some information on an aggressive Australorp... I JUST received my four (4) backyard chickens - on Wednesday, 4.27.2022. I purchased my girls from someone local that raised chicks, so I didn't have to deal with that whole process... I have...

I’m a new chick mom and looking to identify the gender and breed of one of our chicks. My daughter brought a chick home from school. We were hopeful our little Penguin would be a pullet, but she is looking more like a he/cockerel. Any info is greatly appreciated. She/he is 6-7 weeks old. Im...
