Help what Sex am I.

I have three 8 week old Buff Orgpington/Welsummer chickens. I think 2 are pullets, but the third I don't know. They all have light colored waddles and colmbs. The third chicken that is in question has almost no colmb and just one spike on the colmb, but does have some small waddles forming. It is a little smaller in size. None are growing long feathers, and they all have very tinny spurs. The chicken in question I think has a type of deformation??? But, it gets along just fine

This is a picture of the chicken is question face

This is the same chicken from the side view.

This is another chicken. I am pritty sure it's a pullet. No waddle formation.

The first looks like a pulet and the one with darker feather is a roo I think? Is that where they live in that blue tub?

I think pullet.

Darker feathered one is a roo but the lighter colored one is a hen.

Both girls

I think they're girls also - combs & wattles look like pullets on both chicks. The difference in coloring is due to them being mixed breeds - no consistency. One may have more welsummer coloring in her feathering, while the other may look more BO.

I'm no expert, but I think they both look like girls.


I don't know about BO males, but my welsummer rooster has quite the comb going on and he's only 6 weeks old.

I had to treat them for cocci. The person I got them from let them run around with the older birds that had it, so that is why they are in the tub/ brooder. I can't let them run around until they are better because I don't want them infecting everyone else.

I wish they could. they are going to be upgaded to a bigger box this weekend. It's hard to find a hug box.

they are all pullets, but the second picture show a rose or double comb. it must have something else in the mix.

I think the last one is a roo because you ca kinda see pointy saddle feathers on it. I hope they are all better soon
