Ok. I have 6 chicks, 2 of which are 1-2 weeks older than the other 4. I think I know all of the breeds, but you can correct me if I’m wrong. I’m mostly asking about gender. I think at least one of the Doms is a boy. Pics:
This pic is pretty funny. The Dominique on the left is Salt, the one on the right is Pepper, the for-sure rooster. He even acts like one. Both are
exactly 7 weeks.
Individual pics:
Pepper, note the photobomb by June Bug.
Salt, whose barring looks very pullet-like to me. Comb is also smaller, and paler. Could be a boy though, I’m on the fence.
Next: Both are 6 weeks, #1 is Nutmeg, who I was told is a Speckled Sussex. I am 98% sure she is a girl. #2 is Vanilla, who is a BBS EE x BLRW. I think girl. Pale, small comb, and even pattern. Nutmeg:
Vanilla:
Her comb does look pretty pink in this pic, but at that moment it was quite cold. Her comb is usually very pale in real life.
Next: June Bug and Melody, both are ~9 weeks. #1: Mel is a Buff Orp, and #2: JB is an EE.
So the first 4 are exactly 7 weeks old, and these 2 are ~9 weeks.
Thoughts?
TYIA!
