    Help identifying gender of bantam chicken

    Update: Definitely a girl, I finally found where she was laying her eggs along with her sister. These two had decided for whatever reason that they didn't want to lay eggs in the chook house and so have been sneaking out somehow and hiding them under a bush, which I found when her sister went...

    Yeah I don't have any plans to let either of these hens have other chicks, I didn't plan to have any chicks this year at all. Thankfully I had the supplies on hand to help this one.

    Thank you, I think that would probably be the best way, I'll grab one out once they all settle tonight. The others hatched by this hen are all black (there are 3 others), however the other hen had a variety of colours apart from yellow (black and yellow, brown, stripy and silver).
