7 week old chicks.*Re-post*

After waiting 2 more weeks my mixed chicks are 7 weeks old and ready to play “What gender are they?” again!Have fun and give your best guess!

Here’s my completely wild guess:

1,2,5 are female
3,4,6,7 are male

I’m basing this on comb color/size, and a bit on leg size. Just guessing.

3, 4, 6, and 7 are most likely cockerels. The rest look like pullets so far.

1 and 5 are the only definite pullets. On the fence about 2 but color makes me pretty sure it's a cockerel

1,2,5 are likely pullets - 2 I'm on the fence about, but I have seen this colouration in some of my pullets sometimes at this age.

3,4,6,7 are almost certainly cockerels!

It is as I thought!So glad most of my guesses seem to be correct. It is only 2 that is being hard to identify.That chick has been beyond weird from the moment it hatched!! But they will be hitting the age where they get their roo feather's in and then we'll see what number 2 is..Thanks for all the replies so far please continue to hit me with your guesses.

Do you have updated pictures? I’m especially curious about how the pullets turned out.

I agree, number 2 looks to be a male…hoping for an update!

Me too! Super weird bird. Much less masculine than its siblings but still so colorful!

My guess on that one stays pullet. It will be interesting to see how they’ve turned out.
