Ok, here's a pic of all 3. Their dad is a Buff Orpington and the mother of the one on the left is a red and the mother of the other 2 is an easter egger.


Now individually: Chick #1


chick #2 - this is the largest of the 3 and most resembles the buffs.


and chick #3 - you may notice this one has a crooked beak. :( When I did the feather testing at 1 day old this one had the straight accross feathers indicating a male I think. But I'm not real sure about that test!

Any help is appreciated!
 
TOTALLY GUESSING!!!!! I am a newbie But here are my assumptions
1.hen
2. rooster
3. hen

I would like to hear what other people think!
 
Well, I was hoping for some educated guesses! lol! JUST KIDDING! I do appreciate your reply. I'm kind of a newbie too. After looking at the easter egger post I'm thinking mine might be all female because I really don't see much differences in them except for their coloring. Maybe somebody else can help me?
 
Ok, so roughly 30 people have looked at the pictures but only one reply. Does this mean you can't tell or what? lol!

absolutely NO educated guesses from me!!!!! the only reason I think the middle one might be a rooster is in the pix the legs look thicker, its tail feather look like the "stand" different and its comb is pinker (not red though) then the others...
