I don't kow but im gonna follow this thread because I have a 3 week old SLW that I think and is supposed to be a female, but everyone on here said she was a he.. mine doesnt have as many feathers as yours but I think they double each day so please post updates cause I want to follow this! Here is my girl

Good luck with yours! I really hope mine is a girl, i can't have roos!

I say all boys.

They all look like boys to me, too. That sucks! The very last one you posted looks still iffy, but more on the boy side, imo.

I was looking at them today and I see that three of them have smaller feet than the rest. They are the ones with the most black feathers. 2 of them are shaped differently and have half the feathers as the rest. I though pullets feathered faster than males.

Some of the chicks are growing wattles. 3 of them have larger ones. Does this indicate gender?

At 4-5 weeks, if they have waddles, then they are likely boys.

Yours looks just like 2 of my SLWD. One has a comb already forming and the other 2 just have wide flat spaces between the eyes, just like your's does. And people on here are saying roo? I was told they were too young still to get an answer. I thought that a comb early meant roo and no comb meant pullet but maybe I am wrong?

I have a 4wo sex-link pullet that's growing red wattles already. So I have to disagree.

She's definitely a girl. I don't have any SLW's, though, so my experience might not mean anything.
