    Mottled Houdan Gender Mystery

    Hello! A few weeks back I received some great information about this chick's breed (Mottled Houdan) and possible gender. At almost 11 weeks old, the bird's comb is starting to redden, so wanted to check back to see if that means I've got a young roo on my hands, or if this bird is still looking...

    7.5 week old Polish - gender guesses?

    Thanks for sharing this! I'd never heard of that breed - she came from a generalized "polish/crested" incubator, so I appreciate you sharing the breed she likely is. Google images of "Mottled Houdan" sure do align with how she looks! :)

    7.5 week old Polish - gender guesses?

    Hello, hoping to get your opinions on whether this chick (black/white polish in the photos) is a pullet or cockerel. Thank you!

    Two 9-week old cockerels - Sacramento, CA

    Raising chicks comes with a gamble that you may have some cockerels in the bunch. Here are two lovely boys that I need to rehome due to them being...boys. I live in the city and as much as I have bonded with them I'm frankly unable to keep them. They are 9 weeks old & have been raised by me...

    Okay, 9 weeks old, 2 boys or boy and a girl?

    Well then I guess I shouldn’t be surprised as I went in looking for the lively, peppy chicks! Thanks for the tip, if I end up getting another batch I’ll definitely shift my strategy.

    I guess I was really hoping it was just the one. Thanks for confirming. :hmm

    I’m scarred for life haha. Lots of love went into these babies! Hope to find them another loving home.

    Can I ask what gives you boy vibes from the last photo? Compared to the clear roo I have a hard time seeing boy on that one

    My EE babies (sold to me as 4 pullets) have given me quite a lot to consider seeing as one is clearly a roo. In addition, some people have thought one of my other EEs is a cockerel as well! Have a guess at these two. :frow 1st pic: cockerel in foreground, questionable in back 2nd pic: cockerel...
