I'm hopless at sexing BCM's at this age. Looks girlie to me but take my advice with a grain of salt

Does the bird in the last picture in Sshavney's post appear to have yellow in its legs to anyone else? or the coloring seem off even for a mossy bird?

Thank you! Here's a close up of it's face

I hope it's a boy, everyone else is telling me girl though. It was my only chick to hatch and I really love the bcm Roos.

Ya it looks like it may be a boy. Are you sure it's a BCM though and not a silver birchen? I see a lot of what appears to be white or silver feathering. I see that same thing in some of my silver blue birchens. If it's a BCM that's an awful lot of white feathers.
