All Ain’t Quiet

[Hickory_Hills]

I am a little concerned. I have six chicks. One of them seems to like me more than the others. However, she seems to jump at the other birds for no apparent reason. I like her; but she seems to be disrupting the “flow.” Am I misinterpreting something?

How old are these chicks?
I'd wager that the rowdy one may very well be a male.

About 6 weeks old.
I was told they were all pullets

Depending on breed pullet bins usually have around a 10% miss rate, so males can slip in. You could post photos (and breed) to see if someone can help sex it for you.

I will get some pictures up. But the one in question, is a Golden Laced Wyandotte

I had that one chick that was trying to square up with everybody. Yep my pullet is a BOY.

Yikes, I bet that was a surprise.
I need to get some pictures uploaded.
I have been keeping an eye on them.

Wyandottes can be hard to sex, but with that much red on comb on a 6-7 week old screams male.
