BBS Frizzle Cochin Bantams

[JacinLarkwell]

Looking mostly for ideas on color. All were bought as blue, but I know that usually means bbs and not only blue chicks.

Guesses on gender would be great too, I'm thinking 3 males and 2 females, but it might actually be 4 males and 1 female.

They were hatched March 3rd

#1 is a female, the others male... on the cochins, what has never been wrong when i am picking them, is where the comb begins. If it starts over the nostrils, male, and behind it, female.

Okay. Do you know what colors they all are?

Also forgot to mention, 3 dies have a larger comb than 1, but it's still just as pale. The camera makes it a bit redder but it has absolutely no pink in it

Looks like blue, black, blue, black, and the last one looks black but could be blue. I can't see color in that one very well.

1 is a pullet and I believe 3 is as well.

Oh yay. So if they have the greyish blue down on their backs then they're probably blues?

Yes. Looks like black, but lighter cooler hue.

Awesome. I'll go get a picture if the last one when I get back home, but I'm pretty sure they're still a black. Bit bummed I didn't get splashes but I think one of the ones that didn't make it might have been one

This one, I'm torn on. They'll be 8 weeks on Wednesday and I'm not sure if they're still a female. The comb only got red recently. Does it look frazzled too? I have one that's definately a frazzle and that's definately not and this ones between. It's the first two pics and then the frazzle and then the frizzle.
