Another roo?

[am7039]

I have 6 3 week old chicks and I know I have 2 little cockerels but I'm thinking I have 3 possibly 4! The EE I'm not sure about it's a bit too early yet for her. But I'm fairly confident on my white one. Do you agree?

I actually would lean pullet. Too early to know for sure.

That's a Dominique but I'd say it's appearing to be a cockerel based on prominent wattles and comb width.

Hard to tell because it's blurry!

 

[am7039]

Definitely.

And I assume that the Wyandotte in the back of photo #1 has an extra-red comb due to the heat lamp? You can post photos of that one as well if you'd like.

It would help to get different angles, @am7039 , but I don't believe the white one is a leghorn nor do I believe it's a pullet. Same with the EE. But time will tell.
I'm on the fence with these birds, but balancing on one foot and leaning over onto one side.

The white ones I believe are an isa brown/barred rock mix they both have black spots on them. The reddish EE came and all black came from these two.

The white ones are likely Leghorn X BR. The barred one is a BR X Wyandotte, the reddish EE looks like an EE X Isa Brown, the lightly barred one looks like a BR mix, and the all black one looks like an EE mix.

To me, they are all looking like pullets except the orange EE and the Wyandotte X Barred Rock.

Thank you so much for sharing all your knowledge! Only having two sounds a lot better than 4! I was really hoping that reddish one was a pullet. I will keep posting as they get a little older.

 

[am7039]

No problem. @TheOddOneOut is more experienced than I am, so maybe she will jump in and give you her ideas.

Yes, you can post as they get older.

I guess the EE attitude should have told me he's a roo. And there is no denying the BR.

On which bird are you leaning pullet?

 

[All4Eggz]

On which bird are you leaning pullet?

Both.
Too early for both, obviously, but the EE is looking like a pullet and so is the leghorn.
The red wattles at this age on the leghorn (?) make me unsure though.
