Cockerels or Pullets? Please advice. Thanks!

Numbers 2 and 5 are cockerels.

I think 4 is a pullet and probably also 1 and 3.

Me too.... the only one I question is the black Ameraucana. I’m concerned you got taken advantage of.

Oh no, if they are mostly boys, we will be devastated.

 

[whitewood]

All boys, except maybe the Black Easter Egger. Where on earth did you get so many chicks that were boys?

I got them through a lady locally (on FB). Except for the Straight Olive Egger, the other 4 were sold as sexed pullets. Except for the Splash Olive Egger whom she bred on her own, she sourced the other sexed pullets from elsewhere. If they are cockerels, my kids and I will be so, so sad.

Oh, I'm so sorry. Are there more than just those ones?

 

[whitewood]

And are these all of them or just the ones you are concerned about?

All these were bought from 1 source. I have other 3 which are now 4 weeks old and bought from another source (pet store). I thought I will post pictures of the younger ones later since they are still a bit younger.

I have three other 4 weeks chicks from another source. I guess I should post their pictures too.

She seems to be more of a broker/hobbyist. But she has sales policies in place for straight runs, yet no mention of sexed pullets turning into cockerels. I’d contact her ASAP. Somethings fishy.

there are a couple of these birds that are assumptions, but like that cuckoo marans is definitely a boy, his white is too thick to not be.

Oh no....

How old were they when you got them? I feel like you were ripped off.
