Black Shoulder Peachick Sexing

[Waterfaery]

I think I've figured out the sexing for my ordinary IBs thanks to the many helpful threads on here already. I'm fairly sure I have 4 peahens and 5 peacocks.

I have no idea about my Black Shoulder, though. Sorry these photos aren't great but I've included several so hopefully someone may be able to have a guess, or is it still too early? They are all of the same bird and he/she is 9 weeks old. Thanks!

It is a hen. When the saddle feathers form a horseshoe it is a cock.

Thanks. That's great to know and I'm delighted to hear it's a hen.

Here is a pic of a Purple BS cock chick I just sent to BirdsBeesTrees. This shows the U shapes and points that confirm that it is a cockbird.
