Month old chicks

[IvyBeans]

Went out of town for a week and I feel like everyone’s combs pinked up

The first 2 are the same EE, second is Lavender Orpington whose comb is very pink in real life compared to my buff. Last is a Wheaton Marans, but looks way more red than other Wheaton Marans I’ve seen.

Thanks in advance!

Maybe they're just excited you're home?

I see nothing terribly concerning...the lav looks a little flushed but still small

Here’s a few better pics of her comb. Her personality is pullety. Shy, calm. She still gets occasional poopy backside, not covering vent and lost all her butt down as a chick because of 2 weeks of constant cement like poopy butt. Really hoping as an adult this is resolved.

Personally, I'd guess cockerel on the lav. That's what my Silverudd's Blue and Marans cockerels combs look like at that age. The others I'm not sure about, they're still really young.

These should be about 5 weeks old- I did my math a bit wrong

I'd love an update in a couple of weeks. By 8 weeks you can tell pretty easily on most if they're male or female (though some will still surprise you!). Hopefully her poops will resolve as she gets older.

Here are some outdoor pics for better coloring at almost 6 weeks. Her comb isn’t bigger than my sapphire gem or Wheaton Marans, it’s just pinker

I still think it's a pullet, look at that stance. White skin plus lav plumage makes the pink look brighter.
