So cute!! Both look like pullets to me! Obviously five weeks is young, but definitely not screaming cockerel!!

I agree!

Super late to the tag. Sorry! Alerts don't stack anymore so I turned them off.

I think they are probably pullets, but best to give them a couple of more weeks and reevaluate.

Just did some more research on the silverudds blue/leghorn cross. From what I have read, this is possibly a sex-linked cross (shank color) with pullets having slate over yellow shanks and cockerels having all yellow shanks. Reassuring if this is accurate.

Just picked up the birds today!
Now at 6 and half weeks, looking like pullets still. Trying to figure out the breed of the mother of the blue one.
Daughter gave them Swedish names in honor of their Swedish father.
Astrid and Stella.

Father is a Silverudds blue. White one has a leghorn mom. Blue one I am not sure.

May I ask how you can spot the father?(silverudds blue)? I have a pullet that looks exactly like this, that I hatched from a random assortment of eggs. The egg was blue. Same comb and everything. But from what I looked up on Silverrudds, they have a single comb?
