Peridot FINALLY laid her first white egg! 🙌🏻🎉
So I can now say this thread has come to an end. :)
Both chicks ended up being hens 😄
It's been fun! Thanks again everyone for adding your guesses and input! Till next time... 👋🏻
Hey everyone!! I'm back for an update! 🙌🏻 It's been a while...

Hello again!
I'm back with some updated pics of my 9 week old Polish and Silkie :)
Are we still thinking pullet or have they started to show any roo characteristics?
