Hola! I'm so excited to have purchased my first 5 chicks yesterday!!! But I need some help identifying what they are? Also trying to figure out if they're boys or girls! It's amazing what you can find online in just a few moments but being that I'm not sure, I thought I'd ask you wonderful people for some help!!
My family and I live in the wonderful area of Mexico where the climate is probably zone 11. I'm new to homesteading and just planted my first official vegetable garden. Which led me to organic chicken fertilizer and wanting my own laying hens.
My husband happened to notice these darlings as he drove by to our insurance office yesterday. Here in Mexico, sometimes, we'll be told whatever they think you want to hear. So it is unclear as to how old the chicks are. We were told about 3 weeks. Anyway, I'll post a couple of pictures and let you experts have a looksee. I'm so excited!!! I love them already!

until yesterday! The seller told us they would either be all black or red! I thought it was pretty obvious that there were no red chickens coming from that bunch, lol I was thinking that maybe the fella with all the dots and yellowish on it's head was going to be a male.
