New Hampshire chicks

[Mom 2em All]

Everyone is doing great, but they are supposed to be pullets and I noticed their tails are different? My first New Hampshires.
Tell me what you think..

They are pullets. Those are old enough that there would be a bit taller comb and turning redder now and the wattles would start to show already. My New Hampshire Reds are about the same size right now and I have 3 young roos. In second pic one has head down so cant say for sure on that one without seeing the head but also my Hamp baby roos have thick ole legs already too. If you would like I can take some pics of my Hamp cockerals when sun up and post to show you.

I have a wandering dog problem here. Have killed several flocks of mine.
I have a full on face shot of the one that had its head down in previous picture. But if I got any closer, that Mama guinea would tan my hide.

I have another roo thats supposed to be a New Hamp Red too but he has alot of black mixed in his feathers so not 100% sure so didnt take a pic of him. but since new hamps are RIR and what ever mix they threw in who really knows for sure. The wind decided to get bad so heres a few i got really quickly.
