So here it is that fun time of year when I get to drive my husband crazy going back and forth on whether the chicks ore boys or girls. I wanted pullets but they only had straight run so I got twice what I planned on. From the feathering I thought 4 of each in the beginning. I am still leaning that way but a few are pretty iffy. Who wants to tell me what they think? I'm hoping first 4 are all pullets...

He wouldn't let me get a good picture but his comb is way bigger than the rest and very red. And he is really feisty and protective.

# 5 & 8 look like cockerel’s in my experience I’ve not had any of my hens show waddle at this age.:thumbsup
