Hi got these 2 lil ones which I'm getting very attached too. approx 10 to 12 weeks old I'm guessing. Any ideas of breed and if I have hens or roos? I'm thinking the brown one is more hen and ISA brown X maybe and she /he does puff it's chest up to the black one like she wants a fight black one is so calm and I notice last 2 weeks isn't growing as large compared to the brown one. The brown ones legs are larger too. last 2 pics are today. Other pics are from around 2 weeks ago. Tia

Thanks. Fingers crossed pullets. Black ones feathers on lower back have me on the fence. Not at short and rounded as the brown one

Where did you get them? Both are pullets.

Hi from local market. The last time I got 2 10week old from there one ended up being a rooster. I then read up on what to look for when buying these 2 and hope the size of the combs at this age shows true that they will be pullets.

Guy at market said brown is a hybrid. Black is austrolorp. But they will tell you anything I guess. I'm not fussed as long as they healthy.

I would say both are mixed breeds. You did really well picking pullets. Great job!
