I received a barnyard mix of baby chicks and I have no idea what breed or sex any of them are. They are about 6 1/2 weeks old. I’m just having a really hard time comparing them to see which are cockerels and which are pullets since they aren’t the same breed. Any help would be appreciated!

5. Cockerel, sorry im not much help for breeds. but barnyard mix means a cross between a whole bunch of stuff. Like No.2 looks like a BO but has yellow skin so maybe its crossed with a Rock or a Wyandotte or something.
8. looks like a cockerel
Last one looks like a Cuckoo Maran, I would also say cockerel but I don't have much experience with these.

The 8th one looks like someone either crossed a silver bird (silver ameraucana, silver dorking, etc.) with a BlueRedLaced Wyandotte or they crossed a Silver Laced with a BlueRed

Also, the second to last picture, the barred one looks like a barred rock.

Everything else looks like a pullet to me but I could be very wrong.

I’m very excited to see the colors the 8th turns out to be! Those are kind of the ones that I picked out at cockerels as well, was just looking for a second opinion from someone who knows more than me 😉! Thanks for your input

I had a barnyard mix rooster like this #8. The older he got the more color area he got. I called him patchwork quilt-that’s exactly what he looked like! Do you have an updated picture? I’m posting Patchwork, he’s posing center right.
