Thoughts on my 6 week old EEs?

Mr. Big (thinking he is a cockerel!) So much bigger than the others, plus look at that comb!

Not sure about this one...but he/she is a sweet little meek bird, so I'm hoping pullet

Yes I believe Mr.Big is a cockerel also.

2nd and third are most likely pullets.

These are two Australorps. Obviously the blue in the last pic is a boy. But what about the black? It's breeder stock, about 8 weeks. Despite the comb not being as big as its brothers, I'm thinking male. Didn't get a close up of the face, but wattles are pretty good size also compared to siblings in the same hatch. Thoughts?

I am 75% sure that he is a boy! Note the tail feathers.......

That's what I was thinking. Leaner, more sporty looking than his big brother. Thanks!

Sure! And you will know for sure when he crows in a month or two. (if)

I’d honestly wait a few more weeks to see if it develops male saddle feathers. I had several females develop early combs and wattles like the black one. And at 8 weeks to me is still small for a male. Just hold out a little longer.

@AlleysChicks thank you, it's a question until I know for sure. I still have a little hope

I hope it just turns out to be a manly pullet! Mine were the first to lay.

I’m a few months from getting any new chickies, but come February or March I’ll be obsessing all over again.
