I thought about Eddie all day stuck in his brooder alone So i made a makeshift pen for him next to the girls and he seems to like hearing their voices, actually they just started clucking for the first time when they heard him "cheep cheep", probably just a coincidence but possibly a mother's instinct...Anyway, Eddie seems to like it better on the grass and is eating and drinking fine, both sides are curious of what is on the other side of their respective pen but they will meet soon enough!

If you're worried about your BR, you can post more pictures. If its full BR, its def. female because its so dark, but it could be a male black sex-link.

I'm no expert, but I think she's a she. My 3wk old B. Leghorn boys have larger combs than her - almost tripled.
