Hey there, I'm fairly new at this, have some hens already but I got a few chicks from a farm. We tried to pick out the ones we thought were hens, could you help me out? Please and thank you 😊

Hello and welcome to BYC! :welcome
Its much too young to know gender for sure.
How old? For the breed Its a Ayam Cemani, right?
I would like it to be a hen, cause sadly I don't want to annoy neighbors with a rooster. And the breed is a Ayam Cemani yes. Atleast a month old, no more then 6 weeks

It is too young to know gender for sure but if I had to guess I would say pullet, Ayam Cemanis are tricky.

When do you think I would be able to tell more? As in how many weeks should they be? Like I said, I am very new at this, and we are just having backyard hens, so they can feed our family with some eggies and be great pets 😀 my kids love them, and love grabbing the eggs
