Yes - the older they get the more I think the same! The barred is the oldest, so maybe got lucky on her.

The barred one is a boy too.
No doubt.

Ah, well! Looks like my backyard chicken adventure will be much more short-lived than I anticipated!
Too bad, I have had a lot of fun getting to know their little personalities and watch them grow.

You can always get chickens off of craigslist, I also get mine there.

There were a lot of chicks re-homed after the schools hatched, I am going to see if one of the people who took dozens of the chicks will give me two pullets in exchange.
If not, I am sure craigslist or even the humane society has some hens in need of a home!

Welcome, I think they are all cockerels.

I'm not quite sure where you are in Texas but there's no way in the world I would buy chicks off of craigslist in the Houston area.

I highly recommend you just order female chicks from Ideal poultry.
