Here is 11 Weeks! Looking a bit like a roo to me... No crowing yet? Waddles are pretty large, hair is a little wild.. are those saddle feathers?
Thanks!
(They're the bottom one in the last pic)
Back a bit later! Now this one's 8-9 weeks old... here's some new pics! Was sorta hoping for a roo, but looks like a hen to me?
A different discovery than I'd expect, a fun mystery! Thank you all for identifying that as well as helping further cement the chances of her for sure being a little lady!
That was my main thought, I'm leaning towards pullet for that and how dense/round the crest is looking so far, but that could change!
Thank you for your reply!
Hello! Before I say anything else, I'm aware it may be WAY too early, especially to check for a polish chick.
Luckily enough I got room for a rooster, so I don't mind whichever it turns out to be.
However, my curiosity is never-ending and I wanna see if any of you have any guesses?
Pretty active...
Uh oh! I don't mind that she was sold as a sussex even if she isn't one, I love her no matter what she is! Do you guys think she's for sure a welsummer instead, or some other breed might be possible? I took a look at the breeds list the store I got her from and no other possibilities stood out...
Hello! I have had this little lady sold to me as a pullet, and I'm hoping this is a quick thread just to crush any doubt that she might not be a she.
I know it's a little early for sureness, and I've seen a lot about speckled sussex pullets getting larger combs than other breeds earlier?
Some...
My eyes don't see color very well so I don't know much.
Aaa been so many different answers from different groups and people, thank you guys for your input!!
