OK. So, say I hatch out four sizzle chickies, and only want to keep one of them. I'll give the others away. I don't want that one to be a roo. At about what age might I be able to gues the sex in sizzles?
My guess is top pick left most bird is a roo. Also 3rd pic of single bird. Hard to tell on some of the others but those 2 I mentioned sure look like roos to me. Possibly 4th pick, right side bird is also a roo.
that is what I was thinking too chooks in ia. My thougths exactly. they have larger combs and the Fighting attitude of I am the cock of the rock back off! they spar all the time in the brooder.
I am so terrible at sexing chicks from pics, but here're my guesses.
1st pic --- Cochin chick on left looks boy-ish and maybe splash? Hard to say on the Silkies.
2nd pic --- Both look girly and both are (Cochin x Silkie) X Cochin.
3rd pic --- Looks boy-ish and looks like a blue cuckoo (Cochin x Silkie) X Cochin.
4th pic --- Left looks girly, right looks boy-ish and both look like smooth (Cochin x Silkie) X Cochin.
I'm really glad you are enjoying them.
Amy, looks like it will be tomorrow before they are delivered
