We are very new to this site and to chickens in general. We purchased some straight run Ameraucanas a week ago and I've been researching potential methods of sexing young Ameraucanas and seem to have found that the only semi-reliable way at this age is by their combs. I tried taking a look at our three older Ameraucanas' combs, but only feel reasonably certain about one of them. I've seen a lot of great sexing threads on here and figured I'd give it a shot! The chicks will be four weeks old this Sunday.
Black chick, I'm fairly certain this one's a roo.
Blue chick, I'm really not sure on this one.
Splash (edit: light blue, not splash) chick, not sure on this one, either.
Apologies for some photos being less-than-perfect--the black chick settles down more than the other two.
Many thanks in advance!
