isa browns

[funkjunkie]

i know it's a little early. these birds are only 6 weeks or so.

out of the 6 i got in this batch , 2 are supposed to be black ausys , 2 jersey gaints, and 2 isa browns.

these isa browns eat the most and have grown faster and starting to grow their combs , though they not that big or red at all.


anyone want to take an early guess , hen or not?

Those are pullets. ISA browns are sex links meaning you can tell their gender by color. If they were cockerels they would have different coloring.

If they are ISA browns then they are pullets. ISA browns are sex-links so they boys and girls can be told apart at hatching. Did they have chipmunk like stripes on their backs when they where babies? If so they they are pullets.

ISA Browns are sex links. Female chicks have a red cast, males are mostly white. Since yours have that copper penny hue, they are pullets.

yes they did look like chipmunks. great news. was starting to wonder since they are getting so big so fast and aggressively eat. i was figuring the jersey giants would be bigger.. maybe just more easy going ?

Jersey giants aren’t the fastest developers which might be why the ISAs appear to be bigger. Unless they aren’t jersey giants? Either way jersey giants are super sweet and ISAs are great layers.
