Sexing 3-4 week old Cream Legbar chicks

[Agathe]

Males have much more distinct barring. I believe males have two copies of the barring gene, that's what makes them look lighter. If you can post a current Pic we can probably figure it out.

I don't have a cockerel, but my legbar pullet has always been pretty grey.View attachment 3884525this is her at about 10 weeks

And this is around 3 or 4 weeks

Awesome! This looks much like ours, but she is the only one that has this color apart from the one I’m sure is a roo.

Are you able to post pictures of your bird? Males are going to look gray barred.

I’ll try to get a good photo of her.

I just haven't found many photos of the difference at that between stage and no one has mentioned difference in color at that age, so that's why I'm unsure whether hens can appear gray or if it means she's really a he!

The males have a varied shade of blonde and have barred feather on their wing tips when babies.

The one on the right is a crested creme legbar cockerel.They resemble barred rocks when little.If you click on the picture you'll see 2 crested creme legbar cockerels.They're much lighter than the hens because they have white feathers.The pullets don't have barred feathers on their head or neck

At hatch, females are dark chipmunk, males are blonde chipmunk.
Yes, they look different at every state, just Google 'cream legbar rooster',, I'm not sure why you can't see a definite answer.

My crested creme legbar cockerels had no chipmunk markings just a darker shade of blonde down the center of their back.Other legbars may be different.Mine came from Murry McMurray
