Thanks! I know they are tricky ones, but figured I would post and see what the consensus was. I can’t see any obvious tell tale signs either way, so just remaining hopeful I end up with at least one pullet.
Hey! They both turned out to be roosters. When they turned 12 weeks their male feathers started to come in. Specifically pointy, darker feathers coming in their crests. They also had some shiny, darker feathers on their shoulders too
Thanks for responding with an update!
No problem! How old are yours now? I will say up until 12 weeks if was pretty tricky to tell. If there is any pink around the comb/wattles area too, that can be a sign of a rooster. I ended up with a similar aged pulled and she has no sign of pink on her. I attached a picture of the crest feathers I was talking about too
Thank you this is all very helpful. Mine are only 5 weeks old so I'm going to wait a few more weeks before posting photos. So far no red wattles, but it's early yet.
No worries! I know how hard it is to wait, but I really didn’t know until 12 week mark. I think their combs started reddening up around the 8 week mark though, so keep an eye out for that.
