Barnyard mix gender help

[Michelley1001]

Hi all! I finally got some decent pics this morning of all 7 of our barnyard mix chicks. They will be 7 weeks this Thursday/Friday. I am thinking only #2 & #4 are pullets, and that’s really mainly judging from comb/wattle development and color. I think all 5 others are cockerels. I think #1 has started attempting to crow. Either him or #5. I’m hoping y’all can help confirm my suspicions here and give me hope that I have at least 2 pullets out of the bunch. Since they are all mixes and I’m not even sure what mixes exactly since I got the eggs from a friend, it’s been hard for me to judge based on any specific breed sexing tricks. I do know they have a barred rock rooster, which is pretty obvious. Thanks for your help!

I agree with you- 2 and 4 are your pullets, the rest cockerels.

You are correct, only #2 and #4 are pullets.

Thank you! It’s pretty obvious but just wanted to get some reassurance!

Agree. Only 2 and 4 are pullets. I think 6 is going to be a gorgeous rooster though.

I'm sorry to have to agree

I would want a recount-- that's a whole lotta boys to cope with!

I think so too! He’s my favorite so far as far as looks go!

I know . I was hoping for better odds but I had a hen go broody and got 9 fertile eggs from a friend so it was just (bad) luck of the draw lol
