    Easter Eggers: 13 Weeks, are they hens or roosters?

    Sexing 7 Week old RIR

    The easiest way to tell is if they are going red on the comb and wattles, girls remain ‘colourless’ until they are close to lay, whilst the boys could start showing redness from 4 weeks already in some breeds.

    Sexing 7 Week old RIR

    I think they both look like girls, chick 1 could be a bit misleading though, that may be a boy. Second one is definitely a girl.
