And, while it's not a defining characteristic of gender, I'd like to note that this is the LOUDEST chick I have ever had. You can see him/her squawking away in the last picture. No chirps. SQUAWKS!
Picked this little one out of the assorted bantams at Tractor Supply. I don't know why anyone lets me go there this time of year. I shouldn't be allowed. I'm curious to hear what breed you all think she/he is?
I recently hatched a chick from a bantam barred rock hen and a blue/black bantam cochin too. Would I still be able to sex the chick based on these markings? It has a white spot on it's head so just wondering if it would still apply since the roo is blue/black instead of just plain black.
