Hi! Out of all the fertile eggs I had shipped to me (10days stuck in transit) one egg made it and hatched yesterday! It is a white crested black polish and I guess is still in the process of fluffing up lol. I know you can’t really feather sex these guys but if I were to try I would say the feathers say female with an altered patter. However based on the head fluff what do you guys think?

Ps:yes I know you can’t know for sure until they are older but I like second opinions. I know some people have good accuracy based on the swpoultry .com link from Cindy so I was wondering who has had luck with that method.

Thank you!!

This little one is getting bigger each day! Feel free to guess if she is leaning male or female :)

She is so odd! She loves to stand on my hand and jump to my shoulder. I love her! She is 5.5weeks old and I’m still hoping for female

6.5 weeks! Lots of pin feathers on the head but no signs of a large comb forming. Tail feathers are wide I think.
