Sorry about the poor quality. DH doesnt know how to use my camera and didn't want to touch my babies
A few weeks ago I posted some pictures of my BOs and we played the roo/pullet guessing game. Well here are some updated pictures. What do you guys and gals think?

Sorry about the...
I got a batch of 8 BOs and it's looking like 6 of them are roos. If you would like to take these guys off my hands, I'm asking a 5.00/each rehoming fee.
Talk about bad luck! It's looking like 6 out of my 8 Buff Orpingtons are roos! At 5 weeks old, 2 of them have super tiny yellow combs and no waddles showing, but the other 6 look just like this guy.
I got 8 little BOs about 3 weeks ago. This is my first time owning chickens, and I cant believe how big they have gotten already!!! I have NO clue how many are guy/gals but just from looking it looks like I might have 3 roos and 5 pullets... I will give it alittle longer and see what happens...

I'm new to chickens, but from what I can tell from looking at pictures, even the BO hens have red combs and waddles, but the roos are much bigger. Right now I have one who already has bright red waddles and a bright red comb. Also, I have about 2 maybe 3 more who are getting much bigger...

Thanks! DH was inside studying for his finals, so I was left to do it all by myself... it's the best/easiest thing I could think of that I could do by myself

They are a few days over 3 weeks old. It's looking like at least 3 if not 4 of them are roos which only leaves me with half of waht I started with but im keeping my fingers crossed
Took my 8 BOs outside for a bit of playtime this afternoon. I made a little pin out of some old screens we had laying around, it did the job I stayed out there and had just as much fun watching them as they did playing.
