Help with gender/breed (13 weeks old).

[Megs_Chickens]

Hi all,

We have recently hatched 4 eggs with our broody girl (it is our first time hatching). The babies are now 13 weeks old and we are trying to work out their genders. We think we have an idea - but are really just guessing at this stage! They are all a small breed to add some variety to our flock. As far as I know they are pekin bantam and aracuana x bantam (according to the breeder). If you could give me any indication of what gender you think they are I would greatly appreciate it

They are:
Hei Hei (Pictures 1 - 3)
Pingu (Pictures 4 - 6)
Snowball (Pictures 7 and 8)
Mario (Pictures 9 and 10)

Thanks so much! Meg

Thinking all boys except Mario. Hei Hei is a tough one, could go either way, but the patchy coloring makes me think male.

I thought Mario and Snowball boys - wasn't sure about Hei Hei (as comb is very grey). Could you have meant pingu as the girl? That was the only one I thought I was sure of Mario is the predominately black one, with white around the neck.

Pingu is the definite boy. No, I meant what I said.
