Also I apologize for seeming to add these to another person's thread, I had thought I clicked on my own thread. (I'm still figuring out the mobile)

The Jubilee Orpington is female, while all of the others are males.

this is what I was afraid of but good to hear I'm not the only one who thinks the jubilee is a pullet

and just for fun an updated pic of the jubilee with her other orpington friends. she sure is flighty but now I'm thinking it's because she's been brooded with 4 austra cockerels lol

hi all,
I picked up 4 black australorp baby chicks (straight run) from tractor supply the last week of February. all of them are developing a bit of a comb… I’m worried they are ALL roos
anyone better than me at sexing have any early ideas on the sex of these little ones?

also added a pic of the jubilee orpington chick just because they’re so adorable and very small comb so pretty optimistic she’s a pullet.

Uwww, if this is the case about ALL my straight run BAs must be boys. On one hand I don't care because they are food; on the other I am like daaaang. I wanted eggs. Mine hatched end of May. Wonder when IF ANY girls will begin to lay. Hopefully we'll know before then. I don't want an old tough rooster for dinner.

Oh, I'm so sorry to say that they are all Roos except for the Orpington
