Hello

We got this little one on Monday 2 June as a 'day old'which would put her as 6-8 weeks old now..

Can anyone tell if we have a boy or girl by any chance??

At this stage I think girl, however some pics of the tail feather/ rump would be handy. Also by 12-14 weeks you should know for deffiniate

Here is another full body pic

I cant really tell from the photo or my lack of contacts, but have a look at the feathers that are near the rump/ tail, are they pointed or rounded?

 

[venetta]

I don't really know what you mean

The tail feather have short ones in the middle and long ones either side and the look kinda rounded to me..

I still think girl tho I could be wrong, do let us here on byc know for certain in a month or 2s time

For sure. I really hope it's a girl. We had two but the other already started crowing at this age!!! He's gone to live with some hens (I sure hope they were not lying!!!)

I don't think this chick is a Hamburg chick. But it looks like a rooster to me.

Any idea on what it may be then?? It was sold as a hamburg..
