Anyone want to play the hen or roo game?

Well, if only a few girls, maybe at least #1.

1, defiantly looks like a female. Maybe we'll get lucky and the other two will be female as well.

Usually I would say it’s too early, but 1, 4, and 7. Are the only possible pullets I see. Updated pictures when they are 6-8 weeks should be very telling.

As of right now, were really just guessing. I agree with you on 1,4,7 though. I do think that 1 is a female, but you never know.

Exactly, which is why I say pictures when they are 6-8 weeks should be very telling.

Is there a chance you can make a bachelor pad for them? I have a friend who ended up with 5 roosters, she rehired 1, but the rest were very happy in there bachelor pad!

My hubby is very patient with my chicken habit, but he does draw the line at roosters...doesn’t want the crowing.

I knew 3 weeks is early...just too curious

5 and 6 are really seeming like boys for sure. Their combs are some of the tallest and starting to look more pinky than yellow.

Here are updated pics of (I think) 3,4, and 6. They have the largest combs in the bunch. Am I seeing little wattles starting? They are 4+ weeks now. Pretty sure these are Roos??? What do you think?

Those three look pretty roo-ish, especially the second and third. Comb's quite large on the first, also. I'm not sure the chick in the second pic is the same as the one in your original pic #4? Feet look a bit different, and the comb is much bigger.

In your original photos, I would say 1, 4, and 7 look like they might be pullets. What does #5 look like now? The dark one that looks like it may have a pea comb?

Chickens don't have external genitalia. (Post I replied to was removed)
