Thoughts on gender?

1st is our polish can’t really go by crest because it’s feathering in slowly and still missing a lot

2nd is our black copper marans comb size/color hasn’t changed much in the last two weeks

3rd is our speckled Sussex again comb/ color has been the same

4th is our Silver Laced Wyandotte comb hasn’t grown and the color has been the same for the last 3ish weeks

They are 5 weeks now i know still early just curious so don’t come after me! and what a rambunctious bunch they are my goodness haha

I think the Wandotte is a pullet.

The Polish will take much longer to be sure about. It's a tricky breed.

The Marans and Sussex both have some comb development, but not enough to say they are boys. I would keep watch for growth spurts of the comb for the next few weeks. Neither shows wattle development, so that's a good sign.

yeah the polish i know will be awhile as of now i only see two tiny specks of what would be v shaped comb and no color at all. the marans and sussex the comb development has defintely slowed down its been that way for the last 2-3 weeks and i cant say much for the color because i feel like some days its more pink and others more pale. the wyandotte is confusing me no comb development little color but has small small wattles that are more read but also read up that it it can happen with the breed!

Wyandotte females are known to color up and get larger combs/wattles early. I do think that one is female.

The comb growth has slowing down in the Sussex and Marans is a good sign they are pullets.

With the Polish, wait and see. So far, so good.
