2 days away from being 9 weeks old...HELP, WHAT ARE THEY???

[emjay]

I am hoping these aren't all roos. oh man, say it isn't so........

EE's and EE mixes

Baby # 1 dad EE, mom SLW, I'm thinking roo......

Baby #2 dad EE, mom Australorp

Baby #3 dad EE, mom blue EE

Baby #4 dad EE , mom Buff Orpington/white leghorn

Baby #5 dad EE , mom blue EE

baby in question is on the RIGHT, I am hoping white one on left is a pullet

group shot

there are 8 babies all together. fingers crossed there aren't 6 roos, I am quite certain the two tiny ones are pullets.
still no rooish behavior to report.

All look like pullets to me, beautiful ladies!

I think theres 4 roos there, #1-4.

Actually, that white one looks roo-ish too.

 

[emjay]

hmmmm, I think I liked the first answer better.

I think there are 6 roos and 2 pullets.

 

[littlestars17]

number 1 is the only one that looks certainly rooish to me

I'd put 1/2/4 as roos, based on my last few weeks of trying to figure out what my 2 EEs were. My pullet still has very little comb (they are just about 9 weeks old), the roo is very upright and has a much pointier tail than the pullet, and has some saddle feathers.

I am thinking 6 roos as well, but 3, 5 and 6 are iffy's (though definitely leaning towards the roo side).

Usually the only ones with pink or red at 9 weeks are roos.

I'm on board with this answer. There are a few that are questionable but at 9 weeks everyone, even pullets should be getting combs and waddles to some extent... they're over 1/2 way to laying age now.
#2, and #4 are the only other ones that looks suspicious to me. Good luck!

It looks like all pullets to me!

And they are all beautiful! I love their coloring!
