Need help sexing 6 week old chickies >> Silverudd Blue, Ayem Cemani, Silver Double Laced Barnevelder

[PNW keeper]

Alright, my babies are now 6 weeks old as of today. I have my own guesses about their sexes, but will let you make your own. I got them all from Feather Lover Farms in California. Let me know if you have any questions or if you would to see pictures from other views.

I am most stumped with the Ayem Cemani as I am not sure what to be looking for exactly.

1, 2, and 6 are pullets. Post updated pics of 3, 4, and 5 in two more weeks.

1 2 and 6 are pullets. 3, 4 and 5 are looking like cockerals. But update when they are 7 to 8 weeks old

Hi! I was going to guess cockerel for the Cemani, but saw the dates. So I will ask, how did it work out?

And curious about the cemanis feathers - are they laced?

The Cemani is a pullet! Her feathers aren’t exactly laced, but white at the edges which is quite a cool look. Her 3rd egg came today at 18 weeks old. They’re small and cute but are cream colored with white speckles.. pretty cool and unexpected actually.

I’ve never seen a Cemani with white tips on their feathers, are they crossed with something? Or has that faded out? You should post pics of all of them, it’s fun watching them change as they get bigger

Well that’s cool. I haven’t seen any speckled eggs from my cemanis, but all my eggs are different colors, shapes and sizes.
