Bout 90% sure you have a hen....very tiny snood for 7+weeks, the amount of feathers growing in up the back of the neck and thin legs all make me think she is a hen.

Oh goodie! I hope you are right. Also the fact that I haven't seen any displaying should be another hen indication, right? The feet and legs seemed relatively much bigger early on, but not so much now. I very much appreciate your help. Thank you! One more question, if you don't mnd... I have heard her clucking quite a bit lately, but the toms do that too, right?

No displaying and no puffing would also point to not being a tom or jake whatever you wanna call it. i've never heard a tom cluck but when your in a yard with chickens, roosters, ducks, guineas, geese, turkeys, pigeons, peacocks, a pig, goats, sheep, dogs, and kids....unless you know what to listen for you and need to you dont really pay attention lol. Thats at my friend kevins house btw not mine lol...he has 3 full grown toms, one has a crush on me and struts around me displaying and making that "thump" sound trying to get my attention its actually really cute to watch him.
 
My sister in law's last big tom did that thumping too. Its funny. He loved my 8-year old nephew, tom would walk up behind him, and walk right between my nephews legs and just stand there lol. It also loved the women, but hated my brother in law because he was always shooing him away, because tom always seemed to be right under your feet. I don't think they ever had any hens so this will be interesting.
 
Well, I had a terrible hatch. I believe it was due to using these mailed eggs.

I have the Janoel PACKED with eggs right now. Set at 37.2 and development is steady and I have had no losses! Lockdown in 7 days.

How are the ducks?

How are the lavenders?

Oh no! Sorry to hear that. I've heard so many horror stories about shipped eggs, I don't think I'll ever try it.

All my babies are great! Bought 6 new comet girls to go with my other 2, same age as them, and also 2 white silkies that I couldn't resist. Chicken math lol
So I'm up to 20 chickens, 1 turkey, and 4 ducks lol
Now I'm looking for bantam eggs to incubate
