Once they start getting hackle & saddle feathers, you will know for sure. My older chicks are about 7 and a half weeks old and I am guessing that I have three males and three females. The males don't have a much redder comb, but their feet are bigger and thicker and their skulls are also thicker.
I had my chicks ranging a little today, they seemed to enjoy it. Wish I had the space to allow them to range all the time.
Buckeyes sure are awesome, inside & out. You got to love 'em.
