Newbie and chicken sex identification

[feathermaid]

Glad you joined BYC!

I'm curious what hatchery you ordered from too.
That's a lot of extra beaks to feed!​

Welcome to Backyard Chickens! We are glad you joined the flock! BYC is a helpful site providing all of the information you need to know about poultry. There is always space for members on the BYC roost!

It seems that you are correct on the sex. Your light Brahma in the top picture is a cockerel and both of the barred Rock pictures appear to be cockerels as well. Seven was a big extra! What hatcheries were they purchased from? I am just asking so I can be cautious next time I order from just any hatchery.

Hope you enjoy it here as much as we all do!

Ideal poultry is where I ordered from the birds shipped on October 31 and we had just got a very bad cold front maybe they were concerned about them being cold I had my brooder inside so I wasn’t so concerned about them arriving in October.

You can get more opinions/proclamations if you post photos at "what breed or gender is this."

Welcome to Backyard Chickens, hope you will enjoy it as much as we do.

Welcome to BYC. As others have said first Light Brahma and the barred rocks are cockerels.

WELCOME! Out of curiosity, because I've ordered through mail too ..did you have a successful shipment? I had a pretty sad one once. You've got some beautiful birds there.

Feel free to ask questions, there are so many wonderful and knowledgeable people who will answer them!

I believe you are correct on all of the suspected cockerels and pullets- you got some nice little guys!

Enjoy your time on this amazing site!
