i know it's early to tell but i'm hoping for all hens!

Scout the Easter Egger, love her coloring!!!

Prim the Cuckoo Marans

Katniss the Silver Laced Wyandotte

And finally Hermione, just because I want to share - I know she is a she because she is a sex-link

Love her coloring too!

Thanks for looking!! Hope these post, first pictures I have ever uploaded to the site...

Scout - pullet (for now)

Prim - Pullet
Katniss - suspected cockerel (?) may be too early to tell though.
Hermione - Cockerel -

Just kidding!

Thank you

I was feeling the same - although I did a double take when you said Hermione was a cockerel, lol!! I knew better but it took me a sec

What do I look for in the SLW?

Glad you can take a joke!

Umm.. I had 7 SLWs a few years ago and 3-4 of them had red and big combs/waddles early, but they were still pullets. What I look for is extra white for SLWs. It's not fool proof, but that is what I am basing my thoughts on. In your first picture, I see some odd white markings coming over 'his' body. My hens were still pretty dark at this age. But, like I said, I *SUSPECT* cockerel. I am not 100% sure.
