Lavender Pekins, boys or girls please!!

[annejoh]

Hi everyone, hope you are well.
I usually hand rear silkies or polish, but I bought some Pekin eggs online, 50% hatched but I worry that maybe all the cockerels survived!
I've looked at loads of forum posts and pictures as I use the website slot but still not sure about these, the little frizzle nearly died after hatch, he was hand fed fluids and had an eye problem for several weeks which ended up an abscess!! My veterinary nursing skills came in handy..... I have 7 chicks all still indoors for now, in 2 brooders but I've put them all together to try to show all in photos. I think my little lavender 'dolly' will need a name change the facial features on the rest look similar so I think all same sex but hopefully not males. I don't mind a few males but obviously prefer some lovely girls. Please put me out of my misery, they are just over 6 weeks. 3 are lavender bobtail and 2 are frizzle lavender. Thanks

Here they are sorry

The one on the near left is a boy I think. They don't need the Brooder plate anymore unless you're just using it as a roost.

Thanks, I leave the brooder at night for the 2 frizzles as they are small, otherwise is just for sitting on or to keep one of the water containers out of the way. I think if one of those bobtails is male they all are?

I don't think any of the bobtail are doomed as cockerels quite yet. The chick in the last picture that's on the plate looks a bit like a boy. I think that is the same chick as the one in the back in the second picture?

All your chicks are so beautiful!

The one frizzled bird is a cockerel. The one smooth looks questionable.

Thanks, yes it's same chick and I agree.... he has suddenly gone more cockerel like in the last couple of days, I really thought that was at least female.
