Bantam ID help needed 💛

[okiechickees]

These two bantams were from the assorted bantam bin at Atwood's. They're three weeks old now. Any idea on sex? I'm thinking roos, but I'm curious what you guys think!

Thank you for your help!

The first one definitely looks like a cockerel. The second one isn’t screaming boy, but it’s kinda hard to tell from the pic

First one is Old English Game Bantam. Second one is Silver Sebright. Both too early to tell their gender, though the OEGB looks male. Sebrights are very hard to tell the gender of, and likely you will only notice when it crows.

The silver duckwing OEGB is 100% male. Black breast feathers would not be present in a female of that color variety.

The silver Sebright is too young to tell. Wait until 6 weeks or so before trying to sex it.

Agreed

Could be but I'm not seeing anything in the Sebright that says male yet. Comb is pale and flat. You can't sex Sebrights by color as you can with certain varieties of game bantams, so it usually takes longer.
