6-7 week old blue laced Wyandottes sexing

[Alv401]

You'll occasionally get young chickens that have strange and/or poor quality lacing--I've seen it called pseudo-double lacing before (the genes that make up lacing are complex, and also require slow feathering, so sometimes that first set of feathers has some strange ones that look nicer as they age and molt).

That said, I don't see anything that to make me think your chicks aren't pullets. Male wyandottes will often start to develop patches of solid, unlaced red feathers around their shoulders even before they get saddle feathers or have an obviously roo-ish waddle and combs. Yours don't have any signs of that yet.

Thanks for the response!

In case anybody ever looks at this thread for information on there chickens, these two did indeed turn out to be girls. About 4 weeks later I am pretty sure given there pale pink combs and lack of wattles. They would be about 11-12 weeks in this photo
