Our 3 chicks were hatched 6/15/16 - making them about 7 1/2 weeks. They were sexed at the hatchery with a supposed 90% success rate. I am beginning to wonder if we might have 4 cockerels....
Junebugenna (not sure if that is correct spelling) has already told me that "Tilly", (sold as an Ameracauna, but I know now is an Easter Egger) based on coloring is a cockerel.
The other "Ameracauna" is Henrietta - guessing she is also an Easter Egger. She is on the left in the below picture. Middle bird is Dottie and on the right is Tilly.
Then we have Dottie- seen 2 pictures above in the middle and also below. She was sold as a Black Astralorp (sp?)
And last is Buffy - a Buff Orpintgon.
Thoughts on sex? Fingers crossed that at least 2 are pullets...
thank you!!!
