I believe I have boys! *Tons of pics*

I believe I DEFINITELY have 3 boys out of my 12 babies!

I knew I had at least one boy about a week ago -- Starsky.

Then a couple days later I noticed that a second one was definitely a boy -- Hutch!

Now I'm thinking there's a 3rd one. Its comb is dark pink just like Starsky and Hutch!

Here are some pictures


Pictures of Starsky






Hutch loves having his wattles stroked!

The other possible boy in the front. What do you guys think?

I think they are too cute for words

I'm having my first go with bantys this year, brought 3 home...the smallest is like a hummingbird but takes no prisoners! Oh I hope they aren't roos! I'm calling the little one Lola, from the rock song by the Kinks

I would say you are right. And I wouldn't bet against the one right at the back in pic 2 being a cockerel either.

I'm no good at guessing but I just had to tell you how adorable they are! And to just let go and half mass his eyes for some lovin...uh, to die for, lol.

How old are they?

They were born March 16th so they are..... Ummmm almost 30 days I think?

I agree...the one all the way in the back of the pack looks like a roo too! The way the head is up in the air to get a lay of the land....girls usually stay lower...my boys always seemed to have a scraggley appearance to their neck feathers when they were little too!!! uh oh! good luck.

Oh dear. if I have too many boys does that mean I'll have to get more girls?

I see five! Yep, you gotta get more hens. Chicken math strikes again!

 

[Desirai]

you see 5 boys? Oh nooo..if I get more hens will I have enough room for them all?

The coop is 6x8ft and the run is 20ft x 20ft
