Brand new to chickens and ended up with a mixed flock. 4 of them columbian wyandotte. Hoping they are all pullets, that's what the person I got them from said they should be. They are all 4 weeks old.
From everything I've read on the breed they are difficult to differentiate early on. Of the four, one has much more black markings on it's neck, tail and back. Also feathering more quickly in neck area than others. Maybe it's just a differenntiation in markings and its still a pullet. I'm realizing I'm in a wait and see mode but just for fun....
THis is Disco(as a day old chick the darker markings on his head looked like a dancing person according to my daughters)

Sure is difficult to get good pictures. Apologize for the poor quality.

This one's comb is much pinker than the other columbian wyandotte chicks are.

Tried getting a shot of it's back and tail.

This is my 7-week-old Wyandotte, Daisy, by the way. I’m hoping she’s a pullet! She’s shown here with my Australorp, Violet.
