I think these two are turning into boys on me. Hatched March 13 I think?
their combs are small, and pretty pale, but their uh...shoulder/neck feathers are looking mighty splotchy compared to this young pullet, their sister (dark blue).

They look like pullets.

I'm back to see what you all think of my chicks now They are 9.5 weeks now. Sorry pics aren't the best.

Last time I posted we all agreed Willy Nilly is a roo. He is developing right along like a roo, he is the black and white one in the photos.


This is Claudia, last time I shared we were undecided about her. I'm still confused about her, but leaning more towards pullet?


This is Gertrude. I still think she is a pullet. Am I right? Will she lay brown eggs because she doesn't have the pea comb?


This is Julia. This is the best close up I could get of her comb and face. Sorry. She is quite shy of the camera. I'm still thinking pullet for her?

All 3 look like pullets. Gertrude's comb looks like one of those modifies pea combs. Not sure what that means for egg color, but I think there's a chance for green. Maybe someone has more experience with these.

I have an EE/OE who is a little over 2 wks old. I was thinking Pullet but I want to know what you think. She feathered out fast and I tried to sex her by her wings when she was 2 days old but I read somewhere it doesn't always work on EE's. Here's CoCo

Too young to guess. Can you post again in a couple of weeks?

she has a tiny little comb.

the light blue one has a paler, but larger comb than the black one.

The two in question also have the beginnings of what appear to be very small second and third rows coming in on the pea comb.
Is it really possible that they don't make themselves more evident by this time? I thought they were pullets.

They're pullets.
