    Are these cockerels??? (Pictures attached)

    I have a 5 month old silkie Cochin mix, and a 3 month old silkie (frizzle silkie?). I’m not sure if both of them are starting to grow spurs - I’ve circled it in the picture below. I really hope that atleast one of them is a pullet 🤞🏻

    First EE incubator chick, trying to guess if it will be pullet or cockerel

    This is my first time raising an Easter egger. I hatched it out of my incubator and it's now 5 weeks. My guess has been it's a pullet but I'm not positive, although I know I will wait till it crows 🤪. Just curious what y'all think!?

    Are these cockrels?

    I bought some pullets offline and these Welsummers are a little over 2 weeks old. These 2 are much larger than the other Welsummer chick that I got in my shipment and noticed a comb already so just wanted confirmation I was sent pullets instead of cockrels?
