Hey All--
My chicks are 4.5 weeks old. My barnvelders made it easy with the roos getting noticeably bigger than the other chicks with big red combs. I can't tell if the Ameraucanas are just harder to sex or they're all boys
Parents were blue wheatens, but I know pretty much nothing about coloring genetics or how that works
Chick 1: Pretty sure it's a rooster-has the reddest comb (you can click any of the pics to make them bigger)
Chick 2: Also think it's a rooster due to comb color
Chick 3: I have the most hope for this one but "she" has dark feathers coming in on her head and I've read that was a no-go for wheaten pullets
