Noooo lol i want them all to be hens
I was suspicious of 1 and 3 but wasn't sure on the others. Thank you
I'm sorry, chick genders tend to go the way you didn't want them to. I bought 12 expensive high production egg layers and 10 were males. The only thing you can do, is next time you get chicks, spend extra $$$ on sexed chicks, a few places will refund you for cockerels they accidentally send. I think TSC does if they were guaranteed pullets...
 
Well 4 looks like a pullet... the other ones could be cockerels, 2 kind of looks like a pullet but the comb and wattles make it look like it could be a cockerel, so 2 could maybe be a pullet.
 
Thanks everyone!!
2 is the smallest ine out of all of them so i hope that one is a pullet
 
How long are you going to wait to see what is what, or are you going just re-home on what you think is a cockerel, you could be getting rid of a hen and keeping a cockerel at this rate?
