Hens or Roosters

[haileesherd]

Hi, I was wondering if you think my chicks are hens or roosters. They are 6 weeks old. I got them from McMurray. They are supposed to be hens, but I'm just checking because some of them remind me of roosters.

The first one is my Golden Polish. I also have a Silver Polish, but she is a lot friendlier and a lot smaller.

Here is my Mille Fleur D'uccle. It was a straight run.

This one is the rare exotic chick they through in. No clue what kind it is. Has to be a bantam of some sort:

My Silver Laced Wyandotte sometimes acts like a rooster.

Just a random pic of a few of the chicks:

1- might be a rooster but I think it is a hen
2- hen
3- looks like it might be a rooter
4- the d'Uccl looks like a hen but I wouldn't consider it a Mille Fleur
5- the "rare exotic" is a bantam Rhode Island Red (not that rare or exotic sorry) looks to be a rooster at this time
6- rooster

Ok thanks, but the first three pics were all the same chicken. Not sure I made that clear.

Glad to know that bantam is a RIR. That's what I thought but I wasn't sure.

OK, I thought they where 3 different birds the light must of shadowed the bird..
I will say it's a hen..

Your Wyandotte I would wait on. It's up in the air for me...



Although I've never had Polish, it looks like it might be developing rooish feathers...

Ok thanks. I'm going to try and get better pictures later.
