help me sex my cochins and easter egger

[bigbuddha09]

Well to get started i realize it is a little early to sex them 100% but i am just trying to get a general idea to see what everyone thinks they are so far and the color pattern they will end up being. I will definitely post more pictures as they get older. Right now the cochins are 12 days old, and the easter egger is a few days older i believe about 15 days old. The cochins can be any of these patterns White, Blue, Black, Splash, Mottled and Birchen. Also i know for a fact i have at least one frizzle. The easter egger i have no idea since i dont know what color its parents are. So please give me a guess from these pictures. all the mottled looking cochins have feathers on their feet as well.



this guy is a frizzle though for some reason his black feathers do not look curled in the picture. they are very very curled.










the farthest down black cochin is the curly

Too young to sex. You'll have to wait 6-8 weeks.

I realize it's too young to really know. I was just wondering if anyone had any early thoughts. I also realize now that those black feathers are hard to see I will probably add new photos under different light tomorrown

Too early for sexing but you have two blue and 3 mottled[black mottled or maybe dark blues] Cochins.
.Not sure about the EEs

It would be pretty difficult to make an accurate guess, so much can change in a week or two.

 

[bigbuddha09]

that is true a lot can definitely change. so far i only know one of the mottled has a lot of blue for sure the one that looks like it has a mohawk

. yeah the other two are actually silkies but i know that sexing them is harding then most breeds for sure so i didnt put any pictures of them up yet.

i also had a question they seem to feathering in slower then they should at least compared to other pictures i have seen think this is just their genetics?

too young, take some photos at 3-4 weeks. I could tell the sex of all 24 of my cochins by that age.

i think it seems pretty obvious from the comb this one is a roo especially since he has grown the fastest with the fastest plumage and his name bubbha
