Yup. The coloring for female red sex links ONLY applies to the first generation. If you mate a red sex link female to another bird, you will not get the same sexed coloring.

X2. And crossbreds.

At that age, I am looking at comb development and legs. All 3 have very thick, sturdy legs. That's why I say cockerals.

As an aside, you did a good job with the pics! Close up of the heads and full body shots.

Oh well.
Craigslist here they come.
No glimmer of hope huh?

Thanks everyone

Awwww.... I'm sorry. But I share your pain - I have 6 cockerals I am trying to sell, and ZERO takers for bantam Cochins. So yeah, I know how you feel.

 

[leenie]

Well they were not mine but I was open to adding to the flock.
They have "left the building" and are headed back home.

Sorry, the red is not a RIR. RIR don't have white on them.

The speckled isn't a delware - doesn't have the correct color (delawares only have black "barring" in the hackles/tail).

Mixed breeds. All look like cockerels to me.
