1st Timer Looking for Opinions - Boys or Girls? *PIC HEAVY*

[Picky Chicky]

My first five hens were 3 months old and were easily sexed. Now then, this past weekend I couldn't walk away from two swaps empty handed, and so I ended up with 4 older baby chicks. The very nice couple that I bought them from was upfront and admitted they weren't good at sexing, but would try.

I read up on how to vent sex them and to be honest with you, I didn't see any 'nubs' but I'd be shocked if I were right the first time. The white leghorn's comb is pretty large compared to the others....

Thanks for your help and thoughts!!

All four:

White Leghorn:

Cuckoo Maran:

RIR:

Buff Orp:

Thanks Again!

I have a RIR and BO hen that look like yours. The others I'm not sure...

The White Leghorn looks like a boy to me.

The RIR I'm not sure... do you have a side head shot?

The other two I'm pretty sure are pullets.

Thanks so much for your thoughts on these little ones. The only other shot I have of my RIR is this one...

I will see if I can get some better side head shots tomorrow.

I think your leghorn is a roo - besides having a large comb for a 4 week old, I can see the wattles also. Leghorn males grow large combs very early. If it is a boy - you'll know for sure in a week or two.
