I received 6 hatchery sexed day old "pullet" EE chicks 5 weeks ago. I am pretty confident that at least 2 are actually cockerels and I'm suspicious about a 3rd. 2 of them have thick legs, reddish more prominent 3-row pea combs, pointier tails, and boy-ish coloring. The one I'm suspicious of is the runt of the group (maybe 2/3 the size of the others), much less feathering, minimal comb, thinner legs, ambiguous coloring, but a pointier tail. What do you think? I hope no one crows soon, chickens aren't exactly legal in our borough...
All 6 together (suspected cockerels - white in front, red right behind him, runt in the back)
Charlotte or Charlie?
