My daughter brought home 8 chicks fromt the 2nd grade life science project; 2 Lt Brahmas, 2 Australorp, 4 Rhode Island Reds. All are just over 4 weeks old, probably too early to tell gender but of course we’d love to know as we’re only zoned for hens. Of the RIRs 2 have feathers on their feet & no comb while the other 2 have combs. Not sure if this means the ones with feet feathers are some sort of cross or if the combs tell us who’s a boy and who’s a girl. Any input would be appreciated. Never thought I’d be a chicken person but we’re all having a blast with them and will be sorry to see the roos go.
