Breed and gender? I would love any help I can get!

I'd agree with the Dark Cornish pullet. Your other birds seem to be what you're thinking, also. Not seeing any rooster signs yet.

For future reference, Sussex have white/pink legs, it's an easy way to tell them from some other similar looking breeds.

Turkens are kind of a given, aren't they?

Too many white plumage breeds and mixes to be sure! But, it should get more and more apparent as they mature. Or not, sometimes you get one that doesn't fit with any particular breed description...

It's early yet but no obvious males showing. Some show their gender by pattern (like your Cornish) while others you have to wait for comb growth/crowing/etc.

I think that is a golden laced wyandotte

I double checked this morning. This one has a single comb. The eggs came from mcmurray hatchery and they dont breed barnevelders. SS, GLW, and DC they do.

Except for the leg color, she looks a lot like my hatchery Sicilian Buttercup. Her legs are greenish, almost EE colored, came from Ideal. Cute chick!

I think she's a Dark Cornish, I got one from McMurray and she looked EXACTLY like her.

This is my "speckeled Sussex" but she could be anything lol

That looks very much like mine. Maybe once she feathers out more we can figure it out. Honestly as long as she is a she I will be happy because she is friendly and fun. My son was hoping he could show her for 4-h so that is the need for breed! Thank you everyone for helping. I will post more pics when she gets a bit older and see if we can figure her out then!:

Here is the latest picture of my questionable breed chick. Now I am more concerned with gender than breed. In one week she has started to develop wattles and earlobes that are pinkish! Are you guys still thinking pullet or is it starting to say roo?

 

[debid]

Well, if I'm right about the dark Cornish bit, then it's a pullet and not showable for wrong comb type (which does happen in hatchery chicks on a fairly regular basis). Nothing about the comb and wattles is screaming male.

That IS a dark Cornish! She's beautiful.
