    9 week old light Brahma—pullet or roo?

    He/she is 13 weeks officially today. Haven’t heard any crowing or anything like that. Hoping for a pullet but ok if it’s a cockerel too. What do you all think?

    9 week old light Brahma—pullet or roo?

    Well, he/she did not want to cooperate for pictures today. 10 weeks old. Looks about the same as last week to me. Whether this is a boy/girl doesn’t matter to me really. I love its sweet personality.

    Roo or Pullet? (Blue Marans & Marans Mix/Mystic Marans)

    It’s me again! 😂 So these chicks are both newly 7 weeks old. I got them to be siblings for my singleton chick (who turned out to be a full RIR cockerel, who I already have plans to be rehomed.) I’m thinking I have at least one more cockerel, though I would like some second opinions! These two...

    9 week old light Brahma—pullet or roo?

    I know that brahmas are notoriously difficult to identify by gender, so just looking for opinions. This is my only remaining Brahma (we had a Fox breech the coop they were in and lost our other two). So I’m curious to know what this one is so we can give him/her a name, as we have grown...

    Gender help again please!

    How awesome! Can’t wait to see them. Ducks are so funny. They tend to be afraid of everything at first. Mine see me as the “food lady” so they get very bossy in the mornings when I let them out of their house and they’re right under foot to get their breakfast. 😂

    What Color Are These Anconas?

    Thank you! Yes the lighting was indoors with low, natural light. I have 2 other Ancona but they are black and white so these colors are different for me. 😊

    Gender help again please!

    Agreed. With ducks IMO, it is best to err on the side of having more girls than you need because of the male to female ratio.

    What Color Are These Anconas?

    Curious as to what color these anconas are, particularly the smaller of the three. The two smallest are just shy of 2 weeks old and the other is 3 weeks old.

    Light Brahma 5 weeks Gender Guesses

    I know very little about brahmas as these are the only ones I have ever had. Well, other than the fact that I’ve read they’re very hard to guess gender on at a young age. With that in mind, curious if any of you would like to guess on these two. They’re newly 5 weeks old. Chick 1 Chick 2
