Gender ID on three new chicks

[jploria116]

I purchased three new chicks a couple weeks ago. After getting a rooster in my last batch I’m nervous about these. I bought an olive egger, a jersey splash and a blue copper maran. I’ve uploaded a few pictures in that order.

Thanks

This little dot on the foot of the olive egger has me concerned like it’s the start of a spur. They’re all approximately 3 weeks old

Too young to know, you'll have to wait till 6-8ish weeks. So update then.
Wing sexing only works on certain breeds I believe, and at a younger age.

Spurs can appear in both males and females, so it's not a reliable way to sex.
Almost all females have tiny spurs that just appear as bumps.

Makes me feel a little better but I guess I’ll have to wait… my wife picked out the Easter egger that was a roo. She just so happened to pick this olive egger now. Ugh hopefully all hens!

How are your chicks looking now?

Honestly…. They still look the same. However the legs are really thick on this one so I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be a roo…. I’ll take some updated pictures later and include the olive egger and blue copper maran.

Okay!
Leg thickness isn’t a reliable way to sex though.

Ok here are the updated pictures… chicks are 6-7 weeks old at this point. What do we think?
