They're 9 weeks old, 10 weeks in two days. I'd love it if someone could confirm if my suspensions are correct. I honestly hope so, because then I would have the perfect ratio (2 cockerels - keep 1 and other as a backup - and 3 pullets). They'll of course be added to the main flock, not kept as 2:3. I got them as hatching eggs from a breeder. If you need any more pictures just ask. They're recovering from coccidiosis, so Andromeda and Sirius may still look a bit droopy.
They're named after Harry Potter characters by the way.
The ones I think are pullets:
#1 Bella (Bellatrix)
#2 Narcissa
#3 Andromeda
Smallest in the whole batch
And now the ones I think are cockerels:
#4 Sirius (1st pick for keeping)
#5 unnamed (2nd pick for keeping)
I think he has the start of a wattle coming in.
