Hello everyone, very new to this forum, well we have gotten a lot of information from this site inthe past couple months but finally decided to join and we are curious about the sex of 3 of our Chicks.
We bought 10 fertile eggs and placed them under our Broody Buff Orpington. 22 days later we had 3 sweet little wheaton marans (pretty sure thats the breed) they were 3 weeks old today and we have just noticed all 3 are already getting pink combs ... can someone please tell me if all these three cuties are Cockerels.?? Im hoping not :hit
The first picture is when they were 3 days old.
Thanks

I don't know if it is my imagination or not (it is), but I always feel like little cockerels have a special 'look' in their eye... as if they just cant wait to be bad and start causing trouble in the brooder! And these little ones sure look like they want to go start some trouble! They look like boys to me just by the size of their combs, but I am not familiar with the breed.
Good luck to you, hope they are pullets!
