Is my Lola a Louis?

[NeeleysAVLChicks]

I'm starting to get kind of concerned by the differences developing between my two SLW "girls", is my Lola really a Louis?

Louise in the back, my questionable roo "Lola" in the front

Looks like a girl to me.

If you wanna know for sure pick it up spead the tail feathers and look at the vent if it has a bump above the vent hole then chances are it is a male if it looks like it has a female part then it is a female.

I'm telling you this with 95% assurance that it works I found out that 2 of mine are roos but then I again I didn't need to do this (BPR male stripping is how I knew ahead of time) but wanted to find out if it would work. and that is what I saw I seen a knub for the males and no knub for the females.

I was going to ask this very same question. My 2 3 wk old silver laced wyandottes are developing different color patterns. One is much darker without many white speckles on the back, the other much lighter, more white on the back. I'll try to post a photo. If it doesn't work, can you tell on a 3 wk old?

Pictures don't show the difference very well. Sorry. First one is the one with more white.

Wyandotte cockerels are much whiter in the hackle area. Their pattern is just different than the pullets.
