hatched in my classroom ... any ideas?

[MzBalance]

I kept 2 from my classroom 4H hatchings. These were the 2 smallest, but I think I have one pullet and one roo. I'm hoping the light red is a hen and thinking the brown one is a roo. I have no idea what kind, the brown one has changed and continues to change each day! I would appreciate any ideas.
Thanks,
Sharon

the buff looks like a girl....could even be a new hampshire red but my guess id buff orp.

The other is looking a little roo-ish....... partridge rock?

I'd say Buff Rock, and EE.

and do you also think they're a hen and roo?

some breeds combs come in quicker than others. i would wait awhile to get rid of it , if you have to. I got rid of 2 olive eggers thinking they were roo's.....wrong! They laid BCM colored eggs for their new owners. HOW DEPRESSING...........SIGH

I hate to say it but ... I think they're both roos ...

The EE is for sure, the Buff Rock is still iffy, though.

was just looking at some partridge rocks and most of the hen photos have the same color and markings of ours .. so we'll hang on to see
we're hoping for hen (we live in the burbs)

thanks!
and would love any more input from others
