Ideal 236 Chicks

[shep1939]

Hello All,
I received three Ideal 236 chicks from a friend about two weeks ago. I am new to the chicken game and have read the articles in the learning center, but don't have the "trained" eye just yet... anyways, I was hoping yall could offer your opinions on the sex of my three ideal 236 chicks. They are 2 1/2 weeks old....Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Chick 1




Chick 2





Chick 3



Here a pic of all three...

My goodness, if those are only 2 weeks old, with that amount of comb growth and redness, you have three cockerels there.

Hey, I just got a 236 pullet from the feed store. I only got one because I never heard of this breed. She is a pretty cool chick LOL. Anyways, I read somewhere that you can tell by their wings. Two sets of feathers = pullet. One set = rooster.

Wing sexing only works on day old chicks of certain hybrids, though I believe Ideal 236 is one of them.

Those three about have to be cockerels if they are only 2.5 weeks old.
