11 week old EE and BO "girls" actually boys?

[GothChick]

So I have a total of 7 chicks that I got from Ideal, Meyer, and my BO came from a breeder. My Buff Orpingtons were straight run but my other chicks were all suppose to be sexed pullet chicks. Well I'm beginning to think they look a bit too rooish. Please let me know if my girls are really boys. My chickens are illegal and I have to hide them so I can't have any roosters crowing and making noise. Thanks!

Never been the greatest at identifying the EE's but I.say they all look like pullets. The BO looks like a roo. The one towards the end.

#3 and #7 are the only ones that appear to be suspicious as roos, and I say that because of the coloring.

You'll know before too long what they are.

I basically agree with the above post. I don't know about you BO but it does look like a roo, but 3 and 7 look like roo. The rest are definitely pullets.

#7 is a roo for sure and #3 looks like one to.

I aslo thought 3 and 7 could be roos (based on comb sizes). I had a bunch of EEs and the comb difference was the best indicator for me.

The BO also looks roosih. My girl did not have any comb at that age.

I am so glad I read this thread. I have 2 10 week old EE'S and they look just like # 1 and 4 and I was concerned #1 was a roo because when we got it from MPC it was much bigger than the other 5. I need to change my sign off because we now have 12 birds (so far).

3 and 7 are roosters. The rest are girls.

I agree the BO is probably a roo, but I think the EEs are pullets. It is hard to tell on EE's though! I had one I thought was a roo untill she laid an egg. Something in her backgound gave her a bigger comb than the others.

3 and 7 are roosters, the rest of the ees are girls, you can tell by color. I don't know how to describe it exactly, but those two have boy colors, white with the red on the shoulder. The others are girl colors. The buff I'm not sure, how old is it?
