Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

[Super_Girl]

We hatched out 9 chicks and they are now 4 months old. Five we are sure of gender, and four we are mostly sure... looking for help!

We kept track of the purebred eggs, but the mutts have us stumped! The ones we are stuck on are these three Olive Eggers. Wheaten Marans x Ameraucana mixes.

And just for confirmation, here's our purebred Wheaten Marans - she's a pullet, right???

Because they're 4 mo, I'd guess pullets.

I have a gender question about my Jersey Giants. I'm not sure their age, since I got them from Tractor Supply. I would guess about a month old. Also, sorry about the low quality pictures. It's so hard to take photos when the won't stop moving

Oops. I'm new here and started my own thread before seeing this one! Bad form. I'm wondering if any of you can tell whether this 3 month-old Langshan is a pullet or cockerel, because she(he?) has me kinda stumped lately.

It's too soon to be sure your pullets are 100% sure pullets but you definitely have some early blooming cockerels. Growing/pinking combs before they even finish feathering screams male.

I think pullet. I don't see rooster feathers and that's a normal amount of comb development for a female at that age.

Ok, hopefully not too many cockerels. I'll wait it out
