So this year I let my broody hen Sonny (buff Orpington) hatch out 6 eggs. And I have 2 sets of twins (only cause they have the similar pattern 😅) a lavender Orpington and an odd ball 🥹
( you’ll know it when you see her! )
The grand chicks are 6 weeks old and I’ve been curious to know if I have some Roos in the mix.
So here is baby 1
Baby 1
I think it’s a she because her comb is still yellow and she doesn’t have any waddles present

Here is baby 2 … Hands down I know he is a Rooster 😭 but it’s okay you can see his twin in the back for comparison

Babies 3 & 4 have flat combs but no waddles yet so I am hoping they are hens.

And baby 4

Baby 5 is a roo he has his waddles that are pink with a light light comb

Now baby 6 is my favorite 😂😂😂 so I had to save the best for last
I’m not sure what this chick is.

I think you’ve got three of each. The first two are barred, so by default they’re cockerels, since your rooster isn’t barred. The lavender also looks like a cockerel. Since the oddball baby has a single comb, the barred single comb hen or the buff Orpington is likely the mom. :)
