Help autosexing my CCLB

[TJAnonymous]

Happy Easter everyone! My CCLB chicks were born yesterday, along with 2 other chicks. I know you can autosex CCLB at a day old. I have 6 chicks. Three definite females. 1 definite male who has nearly no stripes and a yellow dot on his head. The other two are harder to tell... They are lighter in color. Can you please provide your opinions?

Here's the first... My guess is this is a little female even though she is a bit lighter than the others.

The 2nd one is harder. This chick looks completely different than the known male. Here's the chick by itself.

Here's the chick in question with the known male.

I'm going with first one pullet. Second one cockerel.

If you could add pictures of the facial markings, that might help a little bit.

I hatched a pair, or at least that's what their down specified, without doubt. Well, months later I actually have two pullets I know that you're aware of this but just wanted to share in case anyone else was reading. My mistaken down identity is not going to be bred and I suspect in a strict breeding program, she'd be culled (not necessarily killed) because of her autosexing quality missing

Also, congratulations on your fruitful hatch! So adorable! Happy Easter

I will get some face pictures here shortly when I get back to the house. In meantime, here's another picture. The chicks in question are at 2 o'clock and 7 o'clock. You can see the known male and female chicks next to them both as a comparison.

The black chick is not a CCLB.

OK, got more pictures. Here is the first chick again that I'm guessing pullet.

Here's the 2nd baby again. Not sure about this one at all.

A pair of WHAT though? That's the $1M question...

A pair of WHAT though? That's the $1M question...

$1M? I’m in! My guess is a pair of females, but one does not have very strong auto sexing marking, you are right.

So when does the winner get the prize?
