What breed/gender?

I’m not even sure what this is- it was in the bantam bin and has 6 toes

Regardless of gender it’s staying I just thought it was neat 😆

My youngin named it diamond if it is a roo it’ll be Desmond
Diamond is adorable! And it's looking like a pullet!!! :love I don't know what breed it may be hopefully someone else has an idea!
 
Maybe a sultan? They do come in a bantam variety, though as far as I know all the hatcheries that sell them have the large fowl variety. Even LF are supposedly pretty small though.
Ooo that would be very cool! I narrowed down a few breeds based on toes and the crest of feathers- time will tell
thank you, I’m excited to see how diamond ages
 
Updated pics
I have someone who will home my Roos on a farm so before I send just wanted one more round of confirmation 😅
I don’t want to part with them!
1. Owl
2. Whitey
3. Chicken hawk
(8 weeks)

4. Copper
5. Diamond
6. Basket
7. Rio
8. Sprite

Then a side profile of chicken hawk

I think 3,4,5, and 8 are pullets


Thanks for all the help
As time has progressed I’ve started noticing traits in them that have lead me to lean one way or the other

I'm glad you were able to find a home for your boys!
Cockerels are:
1. Owl
2. Whitey
6. Basket
7. Rio

Pullets are:
3. Chicken hawk
4. Copper
5. Diamond

8. Sprite could go either way but with that amount of comb, wattles, and the color of the comb and wattles. Has me leaning cockerel.

Some cockerels develop later then others so these are just guesses going off from these pictures!

Thank you!
Hoping sprite is a girl 😆
My 4 year old has convinced me to keep owl (Rio was my boy)
And my three year old is in love with sprite 😆

I want them all 🥹

You're welcome!
Hopefully Sprite's just an early maturing pullet🤞🏼 only time will tell!
Well I can understand Owl is a very handsome boy! But to be fair they all are.

It's hard when you end up with so many boys. That's the hard part of hatching your own or buying straight run🥹

It’s very hard
I won’t do it again
I tested my luck last year and won this year it was still a win, yet a loss
I’ve grown so attached to each and every one of them and their personalities
