Hi from NC!

[JD7764]

I live in south Charlotte and just got my first ever chicks almost 6 weeks ago now.

2 Barred Rock
2 Easter Eggers
1 Black Australorp
1 Rhode Island Red
1 Buff Orpington

Unfortunately I highly suspect I have 2-3 Roosters which is unfortunate since I wasn’t planning to keep a rooster and probably can’t have one as I’m in the suburbs. Oh well!

Ps: is 60’s and sunny too cold for barely 6 week old chicks to be outside?

Hello, and welcome to BYC. 60 F should not be too cold for chicks that age feathered out like that. It is very likely that the RIR is a cockerel.

Yeah, I haven’t had a single person that I’ve asked say pullet

Thanks! These pics were from a couple days ago too so they have even more feathers.
