Hi everyone!

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum. I had become an accidental chicken owner around two months ago, based in NYC. I have two chickens that’s I’m still trying to figure out the breed of as well as debating their genders. I hope some of you professional/senior chicken caretakers can help me as I care for my two lovelies!

Hello and Welcome to BYC. Glad to have you joined with us in this Poultry Loving Community. The one with the big comb and wattles is a rooster and I think the other a pullet.

I honestly kinda hoped both were girls but one just looked more like a roo because they were different breeds. At first I thought the black one was a black sexlink since it has the gold neck feathers and the oily/greenish hue feathers in the back but now I don’t know anymore.

Looks like you have one of each, a cockerel and a pullet.
I do not know the breeds but they are very cute.

I’m adding some baby photos of them if it helps! (Please mind the silly poses) should also mention they’re about 9-10 weeks and haven’t crowed yet. They also play fight when I let them out in the morning.
