At that age a male will have pointed saddle feathers while a female will have rounded saddle feathers. Females should not have red combs yet at 11.5 weeks. :old

Thank you for your wisdom! Irena and Jessie are the only two with beginnings of wattles and have the darkest combs - is there any chance the others could be girls?

I have tried to work out saddle feathers but literally can't make heads or tails of it!
 
Beautiful babies ♡♡♡♡♡!!!!
Yeah, time will tell. I'm getting the boy vibe from Jessie, Treacle & Zinna. Your photos are wonderful but still kind of hard to tell. I also use the combs for a guide. Boys seem to have 3 rows early on and girls 1. That has been my earliest and most reliable tell-tell sign for my B's.
Just love what you got going on there ♡ have fun!
 
thank you :-(, hopefully the boys will all get along.....
Not likely, start looking for homes or solutions. Male saddles and hackles won't be in for a few weeks and it's hard to see at first on white or laced birds. Your brown ones have red wing patches, that's a sure sign of boy.

thank you for this, this is very interesting. do you think they will be able to live together till 12 months? I just want them to experience all four seasons before I potentially eat any.
Treacle is an absolute sweetheart so will definitely want to keep him to look after Rainbow and any other girls that may emerge!
 
just thought I would update! Treacle, Jessie and Irena are boys, the rest are thankfully girls!
