IT'S.....a chick.

"She's" about 2 mos now, I believe. She won't hold still for a proper portrait LOL I'm not falling over myself to know, so if nobody can tell yet (or the pictures are too horrid), I know nature will make it all clear eventually. So, just for fun, do you think Cricket is a he or a she?

Looks like a Pullet.

Cricket looks like a she, from the tail feathers. I'm not an expert, though. Maybe someone else can help. Glad you came to us! Cricket is ADORABLE!

I don't see anything as of now that point towards cockerel.

She has had CRAZY tail feathers from the beginning! They form a perfect little "v" over her butt. I'm not used to tail feathers growing in so quickly--all I've had til her were Brahma chicks. Pearl only now has her tail, and she was born in April. :-o

I keep poking around, looking for saddle feathers, and everything seems fluffy and round so far.

Male specific saddle feathers won't come in until much later. Around 15-18 weeks of age.

@Gray Farms , do you have a website? Every time I see you post, I drool over about half the critters listed in your signature, including the Jacob Sheep and Muscovy ducks! I want to come over and play at YOUR house LOL

I don't sorry. I'm entertained the idea but haven't gotten around to yet it. If your ever in my area drop me a line and your welcome to stop in.

So far, looking like a pretty little pullet.
