hi everyone I’ve got some birds that are approaching 7 weeks. Tell me what you think.

2 of them are sex linked so I already know, but I’ll post anyway for guesses. Of the two sex links Dad is a welsummer and mom is a barred rock.

As for the other 9 birds dad is a welsummer and moms are prairie bluebell eggers. I may have to make subsequent posts for the other birds because the picture thing is kinda confusing. Here’s bird number one!

9 is definitely a pullet, 11 is def a roo. As for the others I’m hoping 8 is a hen also. I’ve got a bearded hen that looks just like it. My wife said “that must be beardo’s baby” haha

I look forward to seeing what color olive the welsummer overlays on our bluebells!

Based on the red shoulders of #8 I was thinking cockerel, but chickens love to prove me wrong all the time.

I love that traditional partridge pattern on #9, that and black and white easter eggers are my favs.
