We think we have a hen and a rooster (fingers crossed!) Sorry if these aren't good pics, the best I could get trying to hold them still and get photos of their wings myself lol.

Chick 1 - this is the one we think may be a rooster. It's wing feathers are all the same length.

Hi! Cute chirp chirps! It’s so hard to tell at this age! These were my “girls” and now at 8 weeks - I’m still not 💯 sure which is a cock-a-doodle and which is a cock-a-don’t! Haha We are waiting it out for a few more weeks to see if any saddle feathers appear, I’ve already got my hunches! They are The sweetest & friendliest though, we just adore them!

Oh goodness!! What cutie patooties!!!
We are really hoping ours are a hen and a roo, these are the only ones we managed to hatch out of our 24 eggs. We had both chocolates and lavender's and only got two lavenders. :(
We have a mystery box of eggs coming now though, so we hope we have a better hatch rate with these. 🤞
 
Awe, those are two lucky chickie-poo’s then! Hopefully your mystery box is more successful and also how exciting, I always love a good surprise! Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 For you! 🐓🐥🥰
