6-7 Week Old Mixed Chicks - Gender?

[MamuchkaJ]

I have 14 chicks that we’ve raised from eggs. The rooster was Ameracauna/Australorp/Jersey Giant (sorry, don’t know all the abbreviations yet ). The hens: White Leghorns, Easter Eggers (black, brown, and wheaten), and Barred Rock. They are six to seven weeks old and I have a guess as to the gender, but would like your opinion. It’s our first time raising our own chicks. Our original flock was from TSC. I don’t have clear picks yet of all of them. Here are the six week olds and my guesses: 1) Easter Egger/Ameracauna rooster 2) Easter Egger/Jersey Giant (this chick is huge) hen 3) Easter Egger/Ameracauna hen 4) White Leghorn/Australorp (Austra White?) rooster

Same, except I have a few that look suspicious.

 

[Silviaschicks]

All pullets!

The second one looks a little pink in the comb but right now I think you have all pullets.

Keep watching 2 and update in a few weeks. All others are pullets!

I'm thinking all pullets as well. It's always harder when they are your own birds, I always second guess myself.

Well we would love it if they are all pullets! We tried feather sexing them when they were a week old, but since it was our first time, I’m not sure we really knew what to look for.

Feather sexing only works for specific breeds or crosses that have been bred for that trait. Won't work with most chicks.
