    Quote: My 7 year old says roo, but I think pullet. We are not experts either, we are still trying to figure our GL out. We are pretty sure he is a roo, but at 10 weeks "he" has very small pinkish wattles and so far no crow. Good luck!

    Great! Thanks! Was also wondering at what age some of your roos started crowing? We kinda have a little pool going on in DD's 2nd grade classroom and was wondering if we may hear or otherwise know something by the end of the school year, May 27? The lids were fascinated with the chicks and...

    Hi! I am wondering about the leg color in a Golden Lace. Is there a "standard"? Looking at the pics, they are usually hard to see, but seem to go from yellowish to grey to almost green? Just interested, our chicks are "feed store" variety GL and the legs seem to be greenish-gray. Thanks!

    Hi! The chicks were labeled as Golden Lace at the feed store, so I don't really know what they are mixed with, but am sure that a mix is very likely. Glad to hear there is a good chance they are female. We weren't planning to show them or anything, DD just thought they were very cute with...

    Quote: They're WAY too young, only someone truly experienced and who claims to sex them by crest shape can say. . . All I can say is, wow, those are some small crests. Still, cute chicks! OK, so it isn't just me. The SL and the "mottled" that they had seemed to have pom poms on their heads...

    Hi! I finally have the camera back and have up loaded the pics of the two new GL chicks our daughter picked out. Any ideas on gender would be great! Thanks. I haven't done the up load thing for a VERY long time, so if the pics aren't there I will try again later. The first two shots are...

    Thanks about the bearded thing...there was no mention of that at the feed store. Anyway, they are both very cute! The one definitely looks slicked back, the other one doesn't really seem to have much of a poof at all?! Well, will post pics when the camera is back. Thanks!

    Hi! Another question...OK, we decided to get 2 GL chicks in hopes that one might be a female. I took pics, but the camera isn't here so I can't download and post them yet. But did observe one thing. One looks identical to the male "head" on the link that was suggested. The other is...

    Quote: One of the members has posted some good sexing info on her website located here http://www.swpoultry.com/CindySite/Welcome.html However, I got mine at 1 and 2 weeks and was unable to use her method. I have read in numerous posts that roos typically have the mohawk "doo" going on and...

    Hi! This quote came from eastercreek: *One of my GL seems to have much more of a "top knot" than the other two....fuller I should say. The other two GL and the SL have more of a "mohawk" at this point. I got them too late to use the sexing indicator of looking at the shape of the "poof"* I...

    Hi! I have been looking through this thread and have seen LOTS of great pics. I have a couple of questions I was wondering if you could help me with. OK, last spring we purchased 7 3 day old chicks sexed as females to raise for eggs. They all turned out really well and are much more pets than...
