Two brown chicks are 6 weeks old and the light one is 4 weeks old.
They are all cross of BLRW and EE.
1st picture shows combs and 2nd shows their feathers.
They all started to develop red on the wings. Does it mean they are all cockerels?
Thank you!
This 10 day old chick is a black sex-link. The father is Sumatra and the mother is Cuckoo Marans.
Is this chick pullet or cockerel?
There is kind of spot on the head, but it's not as visible as I had in other black sex-links. The wings don't seem to have real barring, just the tips are lighter...
I did the same cross only it was Blue Copper Marans rooster.
I got 2 pullets, both are black with few red feathers around the neck. Both are crested and have leg feathers.
The mother of this 2 month old cockerel is Cream Legbar, which has kind of off-white legs and a single comb.
I am trying to figure out who the father is, Silver Laced Wyandotte (yellow legs and rose comb) or Sumatra (slate legs and pea comb).
At the first sight, when he hatched and I saw yellow...
These 3 birds are exactly 2 months old. A long time ago we determined that #1 is a rooster and #3 is a hen, but, still, we can't decide about #2. They all have the same parents.
Do you think #2 is a pullet or cockerel?
Thank you!
These 2 birds have the same parents.
Hen is red EE.
They are both splash as the roo was blue. One of them has red feathers on the wings. another doesn't.
Does it mean that the bird on the left is a roo and the bird on the right is a hen?
Thank you!
This is a side view of the red patches.
We have few chicks from Cuckoo Marans hen and all, but one, chicks look like the ones on these 2 pictures, with big white spot on their heads. So, they all males.
This chick from the same hen looks differently, kind of small white spot inside of the black spot.
I read somewhere that small...
Is any red in the wings sign of the cockerel? Does it have to be on specific parts of the wings or anywhere? Is it true for any breed or just for EE? Also, what do you think of its tail?
Thank you!
At first, we thought, this was a pullet. It's a cross of SLW roo and red(orange) EE.
It just felt like one and the comb was yellow until now.
Now, at 7 weeks, the comb started to get a little pink in it and, as you can see on the 1st picture, the sides under wings are not feathered completely...
We've got chipmunk looking chicks from Cream Legbar hen and Silver Laced Wyandotte roo cross.
They were silver looking "chipmunks", not brownish-reddish.
I read here in the forum about CLB sexlinks that they had male chiks looking silverish and female looking brownish-red chipmunks, but the...
Our chicks of Silver Laced Wyandotte rooster and Cream Legbar hen look like chipmunks. Few chicks from Easter Eggers hens look like chipmunks too. Does that mean they are hens?
Thank you!
Hi!
Can anyone help me figure out if I have any sex links in the crosses I made?
We hatched chicks from Silver Laced Wyandotte rooster and Blue Copper Marans Rooster.
Some chicks have chipmunk look and some black and blue chicks have white spots on their heads.
The hens are Cuckoo Marans, Buff...
