5ish week old babies, thoughts on gender?

[Beckin]

These babies are all around 5 weeks old. I’m fairly certain 1 and 2 are boys but would like to double check before I say goodbye to them. 3 I *think* might also be a boy, thoughts? The rest I’m hopeful are girls. Only one I’d be suspicious of is 5 as he/she has a rose comb so hard to tell! Let me know what you think

Agreed. Looks like you have a lot of boys.

A bit young to know for sure, but as for now I say 4, 7, & 8 are the only pullets.

Thank you! Can I ask what makes you think 5 and six are boys? Just trying to get better at IDing myself!

Thank you, I’ll give them a couple more weeks and see how they go.

I agree with this, although 6 and 3 are tough to tell.

You're welcome! And sure, I will be glad to help you learn. #5 is a for sure cockerel because of his red growing on the wing bows, and his comb is reddening quickly for his age. I am not totally sure #6 is a cockerel, but it puts out cockerel vibes because the chick looks as if it may have early reddening developing.
