This is my six-weeks old Light Brahma. I wingsexed him when he was less than 24-hours old and seemed to be male, but I don't know if it works with Brahmas. Do you think is a cockerel?

Thanks for this amazing, helpful thread! We got our first batch of six chicks in early April, all supposed to be pullets. Two Rhode Island Reds, two Buff Orpingtons, and two Araucanas. One of the buffs is clearly a roo, he's bigger and his comb is bigger and redder than the girl, and he crows at me in this adorable cracking puberty sort of way. We're going to try to keep him and get a couple more girls if we can. ETA: In my googling, I've figured out the Bunny here is actually probably an Easter Egger, not a real Araucana which is what they he/she was sold as. Our other "Araucana" looks much different from Bunny, which is why I suspected rooster, but now I'm much less sure. I'll try to get a pic of our other one, but she's more shy.

I'm almost positive one of the Araucanas is a roo as well, but I want to check here before I try to re-home him. This is Bunny. I tried to get a better body picture of him, but they all crowd around when I show up because I'm the food-bringer, I'll try to get one later if you need it. He's around 10 weeks old (this is not their permanent run, just a temporary area to keep them away from the lawnmower):

It is probably still too early but any guess with my Faverolles? They are 2 weeks today.
They are still pretty skittish so pictures were hard to get.
They are from a hatchery so probably darker than a show girl. I don’t see any black feathers but there are two chicks who I think appear a bit darker than the others. Basically, I‘m probably overthinking it and have no idea. Lol

Ok guys- updated pictures of my little polish. Any thoughts on “ her” now? She’s about 5ish close to 6 weeks.
Still too young. Polish are particularly hard to sex due to their comb type and crest.
Is my 8week old Speckled Sussex a cockerel?View attachment 2173931View attachment 2173938

I know they’re probably too young, but I have four splash isbar chicks. All the same age. Theee have the long vertical tails and one has a short somewhat fanned looking tail(top). Picture of the two. Is one a Of these a roo?
Too young. Tail shape and length don’t matter at that age.
Hello! I would love some help with this golden laced polish. About 7 weeks.
Too young

Easter egger cockerel
I have 8, 2month old blue Andalusion chickens, and was wondering if they are hens or cockerel how can I tell they all have the same colored comb?

Pullet. If they all have combs that are the same color and size they could all be pullets.
It is probably still too early but any guess with my Faverolles? They are 2 weeks today.
