Cochin gender?

[annewandering]

I know its early on them (three weeks) but is the Buff female or male and any ideas about the whites? There is one buff and are two whites in all the photos.

Hard to say. There are some breeds I can tell in week or less what sex they are. Then have those breeds you can't tell until one of them crows.

I think the buff may be male for two reasons. He has more growth on the comb than any of my other six cochins. And he was the freebie from McMurray. lol.
The whites are the two survivors from three. Two were supposed to be female and the other male. One died shortly on arrival from injuries of travel. So I am left not knowing if I need another male or not.

I found this site helpful. This lady seems to know her Cochins! It would probably be more useful if you have older pictures of them but here it is hope this helps some.
