Hi I have 5 chicks and no clue the breed or gender. They are 3 weeks and because I don't know what breeds I'm finding it hard to sex them. I'm not allowed to keep cockerels so would love to know ASAP so I can find them homes. Here are some pictures, I have numbered each chick from 1-5 TIA
Hi there, so 3 weeks ago I hatched 7 beautiful chicks for the first time. Is it possible to tell the gender and colour type from my pictures or is it still too early? (Also everything I find on the white one has a black dot on the back of its head from birth. This one was pure yellow and only...
This little guy or girl blue sapphire chick is stumping me. I initially thought it was a guy because of feathers but he doesn't have white dot on his head or in his wing feathers. Can anyone shed a little light on how to tell? They about 2 weeks approximately.
So... despite having added 8 chicks to our flock back in April bringing us to a total of 20, chicken math struck again and persuaded us that we need 2 cuckoo marans, 3 amererucanas and 1 white leghorn. I've wanted these breeds for a while, so no complaint... but we're at 3wks and I'm seeing...
Hello, I know 3 weeks is too early to tell, but I love playing the guessing game of what gender the chicks are. I have two buff orpingtons (#1 & #2), one starlight green egger (#3) and two cream legbars (#4 & #5). All are from TSC.
The biggest difference I see right now is between my two buff...
This is supposed to be a pullet Midnight Majesty Maran or Mystic Maran. I have looked at several posts and apparently they are sex-link? I only have the one Maran so no comparisons. No white spot/dot on the head but white specks around the eyes. She (hopefully) has big feet and appears to have...
I have 3 week old barred Plymouth Rock chicks from a breeder. This is my first time having chickens. I think I may have ended up with a rooster. What do you guys think?
I was so convinced my sweet chick daisy was a girl she is a lap chick already and I had thoughts others may be Roos but not her and now she is looking the most like she may actually be a male after all? Red comb forming also has red wattles coming in, “she” is 3 weeks old! Thoughts??? She is an...
these are 3 weeks old and I’m thinking of buying- I know it’s early. Anyone have an idea if they might be pullets? I’d rather not have two roosters if I can help it.
Any guesses either way?
The parents are the last pic
I'd have thought 3 weeks old might be too young to tell 😳, but little Fez is pretty big, bigger than two other EEs the same age -- and the wider comb and a few red shoulder feathers seem to suggest cockerel...... Is it still too early to say for certain?
The other two have tiny skinny yellow...
I have a 3 week old silkie x bantam brahma mix chick named Chestnut. 3 weeks is way too young to know for sure, but I wanna see what others think. I'm leaning towards cockerel, because of his big legs and kinda wide comb.
I have 2 other chicks from the same exact parents, but I can't even...
