I'll save you some time. Any that start off like a brown chipmunk and then feather in with black chests like this are male. Always.

Any that develop bright pink in the comb before they even finish feathering are male.

The rest, wait until 8 weeks and then post pics if you aren't sure.[/QUOTE]
Thanks!

Not the best pic. She was moving quite a bit. We can' have roosters in my town

5 week old Buff Orpington has rose coloring a base of crown. 2nd BO chick is the same age with no red coloring at all. Thoughts? I can' have a rooster and she is so sweet! Would love input

I'm not sure what I have here. (Breed or sex) This little one was hatched around April 1st. There was feather loss, shown here, when I recieved her/him, but they are growing back. There are some feathers on its legs. If you need a close up pic of anything, please let me know. Thank you in advance!

Probably a cockerel but I wouldn't give it away until it was more obvious than that.

Thank you!! I have 7 total, different breeds, (hopefully not all males) I'm new to the chicken world and really appreciate the help! I'll post the others this evening if you wouldn't mind taking a look. Thanks again!

Hot weather makes them flush. They look like pullets to me.
