23 Days old! Posting just because I am sooooo squeefully delighted with my pretty chick. Three or four more weeks until I think I can really start guessing gender.
Oustanding! :waves: I am also in the East Bay Area. I have a two week old Blommehons (Swedish Flower Hen) chick. A friend who goes by feather pattern in the wings, think it's a cockerel. Looking at the vent, I think it's a pullet. I should know more in about three or four weeks, I think!
Looking at the vent, I think I've got a lovely little hen. A friend who knows chickens, however, looked at the feather pattern of the wings and says she thinks it's a cockerel.
Do SFH chicks follow the feathering pattern of one layer for males, two layers for females?

Anyone here located in Northern California/SFBA area? I am looking to buy a couple SFH pullets, and with the heat and time of year I don't want to ask/risk shipping. Every resource I have run down so far has tapped out.
thanks
