I have several chicks I'm guessing at their gender that I hatched out in my incubator. I bought the eggs off of Ebay and was pretty happy with the result. They were advertised as Ameraucanas to find out they were not pure. They are hatchery EEs. I have a chick I bought from a local feed store that was advertised as an Amber Laced Wyandotte. It is OBVIOUSLY not a Wyandotte of any variety, but I have idea what it is. She's about 4 weeks old or so. Any clues?

supposed "Wyandotte"















Now here's the hard part. ;) These are the EEs that I'm trying to figure out their gender. They are 12 weeks old. The black/white one I call Obsidian. The Gold/White one I call Patchy, and the one with the grey face with the fawn chest is Harley. It was pretty hard to get any good pictures of Obsidian, so I apologize...

Harley's face, Patchy's front... quarter, and Obsidian's rear.


one of the SLW just has to get in on it... Sorry about that...


This is probably one of the few good fronts of Obsidian.

Thanks for any help/guesses.
 
Thanks for the link! And I'll hope for the best on the EEs. They moved around so much I couldn't get good pictures. When my DH gets home, I'll try and beg for help with better pictures.. :)
 
With that name I'd vote Amber Link, an egg laying hybrid, no idea where the Wyandotte part on the label came from, thread on the Amber Links https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/171541/amber-link
None of the EEs scream cockerel to me at this point, kinda got lost in the pictures on how many there are.

I was coming to say Amberlink, too. She looks like my Amberlinks.

Your EEs all look like pullets to me, too. Harley is the only one that gives me pause, but I will say pullet so far.
 
I'm not really sure what she looked like. I'm pretty sure she was all white, slate colored legs.. Not much different than she does now, really.


@vehve , I hope you're right. :)
