I vote 1 2 5 6 as boys, the rest girls.

I say only 7 is a pullet. The rest have awful pink combs!

I think 1, 5, 6 and mybe 2 are roosters.

3, 4, and 7 look a lot like my buff orp pullets did a few weeks back.

I gotta tell you, though, my pullets, who are even older than yours (at 8 weeks old now), still don't have near the prominent combs 1, 2, 5 and 6 do!

I'm not an experienced chicken owner, but those would have to be my guesses for roosters.

Ok, here we are at 11 weeks old now. The answers should be clear by now, right? I think so. I think I know them all. What do you think?

They are all in the same order, 1 pic each. Hope the photos are good enough.

Drumroll:

Chickie #1 --boy

Chickie #2 --Boy

Chickie #3 --Girl

Chickie #4 --Girl

Chickie #5 --Boy

Chickie #6 --Boy

Chickie #7 --Girl
