    Hoping these two are hens? And breed thoughts

    They look like girls to me!! Are they "squatting" when you approach them? You may have said and I missed it. After my girls did the famous "squat of maturity" it was a week before the first egg. Beautiful birds.

    Hoping these two are hens? And breed thoughts

    I would think at 11 weeks any males would be showing larger, pink combs. I have 2 BR pullets that are 13 weeks and they still have small yellow combs..the neighbor has one the same age with a much larger much pinker comb...I can't really tell in the pictures...woukd need close ups of the combs.

    What about these little ones? Daddy is a RIR/WLH...red chicks momma is a red star black chicks is a BSL but has feathered feet, so crossed with something. If the sex linking genes hold true in 2nd generations I'd say these are both girls.....what do you guys think? One week One day
