Normally, I steer clear of the chickens as they have never interested me (and kind of frighten me) but I noticed a few days ago a chick that caught my eye.

This particular chick looks nothing like the others, so somehow we got a cross breed egg laid. (unsure of all our breeds but i know we have Dorking, Barama(sp?), etc.) (s)he is white with tan/grey tips on her wings, while all the other chicks are brown or gold.

I like her! (at least i hope its a her) I wanted to know if it was still too early(or too late to tell until later) her sex.

She's about four weeks, give or take a few days
Is there anyone to tell now? or do i have to wait until she gets older (if so, how much older?)

Here is a picture of her if that helps:

I think you were trying to spell Brahmas? I think it is a boy. And he isnt a purebred brahma because he dosent have feathered feet.
Yes i was! No i know he isn't a purebred. Somehow we got a rooster and a hen of different breeds together because he's definetly a cross.
