Dear all,
As our "girls" approach 8.5 weeks, I'm trying to ID them. While we are hoping for all pullets, we will get by if one of our silent, calm Brahmas is a roo. Two of them strongly look like pullets, so I haven't taken as many pictures of those birds. (Plus that Orp is a real camera shy girl.) Our biggest concern is that our one strong-willed Orpington, "Gertrude", is displaying more aggressive tendencies, though we realize too that this could be a pecking order thing. She's got the most face time in this post. (Note: Our one Buff Brahma, "Martha", has always been a little darker since cute fuzzball days.)
Thanks so much in advance!
As squirmy as they were this morning, here goes:
Pic #1: Gertrude
Pic #2: Gertrude
Pic #3: Martha (I suspect pullet)
Pic #4: Gertrude
Pic #5: Gertrude
Pic #6: Gertrude
Pic #7: Ina & Martha (Brahmas); Orpington (??) They committed another bêtise... knocking over the food tray after I fixed it 4+ times, lol...
Pic #8: Ina and Martha
Pic #9: Martha
Pic #10: Martha
