I know it’s likely still too early but I just wanted to post them again and see if anyone has ideas. The two Olive eggers have very different coloring and the two Rhode Island reds have different coloring as well so I’m nervous I have one of each😅

I got them from TSC 4/7 and they were at least a couple days old since they had little wing feathers. So they are about 3 weeks old.

I’ve never had chicks this young and my last batch were dna sexed pullets so I’m not even sure what to look for. I keep seeing stuff about make specific coloring but don’t know if the breeds matter for that.

They look like lovely pullets!
 
It is a bit too early to be able to tell definitively so I would update when they are around 6 weeks old. So far they are not showing any obvious cockerel signs.

I agree, all look like pullets, but it's still early. I love the little barred Olive Egger! She's adorable.

She’s so cute!! I’m so excited to see what they look like as they get older! If they are all pullets we got super lucky since the Olive eggers were straight run!
