I have 2 speckled sussex chicks 5 weeks old in 2 days and was wondering if anyone can help with the sex of these guys.

chick 1 No visible waddles and comb is yellow but a lot of white on breast feathers so far.

Ok Here is an update on my specked sussex chicks. They are 7 weeks old and still can't decide if they are Hens or Roos. Would really appreciate you guys input. Thanks

Chick #1 Same as chick #1 in original post

Chick #2 has less white on the chest and the tail is not as long as chick #1. Though they feathered out the same.
