Is Bertha actually Bartholomew?

[NCMtnchickenman]

Hi folks! I have a SLW that my daughter lovingly named Bertha. She (we thought) however is getting some really red wattles and a red comb. Could she be a he? I also have a little bantam bin chick that I thought was a bantam buff Brahma but it (pretty sure it’s a little cockerel) has a single comb. Any breed ideas on him? Thank y’all for the advice!

Yeah, that looks like a boy. Both of them do, actually. No idea on bantam bin chick's breed.

I was afraid of that. Thank you! I know it happens but she was supposed to be a pullet

I agree, I'm thinking both are cockerels

The little bantam chick may be too young to tell a breed. Feathered feel and colors of buff Brahma but that comb says different

Wyandotte is undoubtedly a cockerel. White wing bars are a dead give away. The bantam is a d'Uccle, buff columbian or maybe a millie fleur.

Thanks! Yeah when that comb got so red I was afraid that was the case. I’ll wait a few weeks and pots another picture of that bantam if y’all want. Thanks much I was clueless on that one

Post not pots

He is more likely a Millie Fleur pattern as those are much more common.
