    Gender help

    Hi, I ordered ten pullets from Meyer hatchery and seem to have gotten some boys. I’m very disappointed as I’m sure that the first two are cockerel’s (tho please feel free to tell me I’m wrong) but am hoping that my Brahma doesn’t make three 😞. They are 5 1/2 weeks old I have never had a chick...

    Bought as “pullet”… I’m doubtful

    I have posted about his chick before regarding what breed it may be. Based on the low quality lacing that is coming in I’ve decided on a SLW mixed with… something. I bought it as a pullet from the rare breed assortment from Meyer. It is only three weeks but it’s hard for me to call this chick a...

    Sexing 1 month old buff Orpington

    Hi everyone, I have a 1-month old buff Orpington which I really wish it is a she. I don’t see any development in comb yet, her same hatch brother has already got a big red comb. I have heard Orpington mature slower and there is a chance she might suddenly grow out a comb in the next few weeks...

    Hi all! We have a 4 1/2 month old Rhode Island White. We were told she was a pullet. Does anyone know if she is a female? Thank you!

    6 week old Prairie Bluebell Egger and Starlight Green Egger chicks

    Good Afternoon! Backstory: I got a group of 15 chicks of various breeds this year. 12 of my 15 pullet-sexed chicks turned out to be roosters. When I contacted Hoovers, who supplies chicks to the store, they were quick to apologize and send new chicks of my choice. That would *definitely* be...

    6-7 week old muts! Gender?

    Hii! First time ever posting :D I got two almost 7 week old chicks that had been super slow to feather, and I fear they may be both cockerels. Their parents are also muts so it has been really hard for me to tell right away what are they :S is it still too early to tell or i'll have to think...

    Roo or hen Leghorn?

    Hello everyone, meet Bedhead. We got this little one in a group of six on March 4th from a farmer near us. She said they were all five days old, but this one has always been a bit bigger then the rest. I’m thinking Bedhead is actually a week older than the rest of the group. Recently it seems...

    8 Week Old BCM

    Hi there everyone! First time posting here and I hope I can trouble you for an opinion on my 8 week old BCM. Do you think this is a cockerel or pullet? I have one other BCM that has a smaller waddle and a lighter comb so I assume this is a rooster? I also have 4 Olive Eggers (2 black and 2 blue)...

    Barred Rock Gender

    Hi everyone! I had posted about my barred rock supposedly pullet a couple weeks ago and got mixed responses on whether she was a pullet or cockerel. She is 7 weeks tomorrow and just wanted to hear your thoughts. My guess is pullet since that’s what we bought her as. Also she doesn’t look to me...

    Guesses on gender for 3-4 week old EEs

    I think they are almost 4 weeks old. We got them on march 6th and they had some wing feathers already so assuming a hatch date of around February 26th. Any insight on gender? The last one is a bit bigger and fiestier than everyone else.
