Hey all! I know it’s super early but I’m hoping to get some eyes on these babes. I see at least two Roos already but the others I’m not sure yet. I know in the coming weeks it will be more evident but I guess I’m worried because I’m hoping at least one of these is to be a girl because I’m...

Hello,

Picked up this sweet lady today. Picked her out of the “color assortment” pullet bin. Thought for sure she was a maran but now I’m not 100% and maybe she’s a Cochin? Can’t find any definitive telltale sign, which is which. What do you think?
