BLR Blue Laced Red Wyandotte chicks 1 month - sexing by pin feathering

[sophi3]

Only 1 month old so too young to really have any certainty, esp w/ no comb development. However have noticed some distinct differences in feathering - especially 3 being covered already and 1 and 2 still being mostly fluffy down. Would this make 3 likely to be a pullet? Any speculation on all of them would be appreciated.

3 does look like a pullet. 1 and 2 I am uncertain.

It’s really all speculation at this point. Often pullets will get feathers first, but it’s not a hard and fast rule. If you post again in about a month it should be much easier to tell gender. Wyandottes do tend to redden up early, even the pullets, so they can be kind of tricky.
