Black Australorps- Genders?

[CowgirlMama]

I have 11 BAs that I have no clue on gender... I took pics today- they are all 3.5 weeks old. I bought a S/R of 10. lost one and then bought 2 BA pullets. So I *should* have at least 2 pullets. I also have BRs, NHs and GSLs (I'll post those separately) that I have a pretty good idea of genders... but these BAs are confusing me!!! Thanks for the help!

I think its a little soon to tell...

But chick #10 looks as if its eating poo

Can you say : Little bird make big poopy

It might be to soon to tell but they all look like my mom's did and they are both hens. Please keep me updated.

I was thinking it might be too soon with these guys... there are a couple that I think are roos (I'm hoping for at least one!). Its funny that all my chicks are the same age, and I can tell some of the roos in the other breeds, but can't tell a single one in this bunch! Thanks- and lillie2202, I'll keep you posted!

My BA looks just like your chick in #7....I am hoping mine is a pullet....I guess we will both just have to wait and see

I agree except for #4... I'm thinking that's a pullet... but I agree too soon to tell... its frustrating because I can tell roos/pullets on my other 3 breeds (at least I'm pretty sure!) and these guys are hard- oh and of course they are the only breed that I got S/R!!! All the others were sexed (not that its 100% guaranteed)!

The reason I said roo on 4 was that it had thick legs and a more prominent comb than the others

If I had to guess, I'd say 2 and 7 are roos.
