Hello! First time chicken owner here
I have 6 chicks that are now 6 weeks old. I know it’s early but I was wondering if any are showing definite or subtle signs to watch that they may be roos..
I purchased them being told they were female and sexed by a professional, that chances are slim there are any roos but I’m starting to question a couple and wanted to get some guesses from people who may be able to pick out which look more pullet/roo
I clearly don’t know what I’m doing and know I likely have to wait to see whether they crow or lay an egg to be sure but figured some seasoned eyes could make better guesses then myself as I’m completely new to the crew
The only one I’m 95% sure is a pullet is the beilefelder as I’ve read they are able to be sexed at hatch.
The first picture is the beilefelder, the second the white legbar and the rest are Easter eggers. One is possibly a Welbar (the person whom self them to me had identification tags on the beilefelders and welbar legs and welbars ended up getting mixed in with the Easter eggers as they were all in the same brooder).
I’d love any guesses you have they aren’t all
Roos! And I end up with some eggs lol
Thanks for playing hen or too
