I have this group of birds that are about 19 weeks old now. I know I have heard early crowing sounds but can't pinpoint who it is yet. Here is a link to the pictures of them at 3 weeks old if interested. Do I need to worry about anyone laying withing the next few weeks? I don't have their nest boxes figured out yet so I hope not. Thanks for any help you can offer.

#2 This is Dot Bell. She is smaller and fluffier then the other EE. This one has a much small and differently shaped tail then the other EE. (pic bellow)

#3 This is Knife Beak. Roo? Someone said partridge cochin, he is feather footed. Some of the feathers on the underside have a blue tint. Beautiful!

#4 I couldn't get many pics of my barred rock named Count-chic-u-la but I'm sure she is a she.

#5 I love this little sizzle named Fluff Butt. So soft and nice. I am thinking roo because of the tail though. S/he is about 22-23 weeks old now.
Doesn't it look like he's smiling?






#6 This is Squawk. Very soft velvety feathers. very fluffy and feather footed. Last guesses were cochin? I am thinking girl by the tail but comb is saying roo?





Black/blue one.




#7 This is Stripes. He is an EE. Has ear fluff. I know there is a name for it but I forget. Very cute. Has a very small pink comb and no sign of waddles yet.


Stripes on left, sister dot bell on right.

I love the pattern on his breast.



#8 This is Feather head. This little frizzle finally filled it's feathers in. Looks like a girl to me but I have no experience with this breed. She is 22-23 weeks old. Still very shy, This is the only pic I could get.


The rest are random pics because I took to many.
What you doing?

The barred rock is a pullet.

Its too young to tell for sure (Silkies and Silkie crosses are notoriously difficult to sex). However, if I was to guess, I would say that "it" is a pullet.

Black Cochin pullet.

Easter Egger pullet.

The silver laced and partridge are roosters. I don't do frizzles, but everyone else is female.
