I received 10 "pullets" from MTF Healthy Hatcheries on May 1st. They are 9 weeks old now and I have been reading this & other posts daily trying my darndest to figure out if I have guys or dolls. I love this site & wish I was as educated as all of you but...some days I'm positive I have pullets and the next day I'm certain they are Roos. PLEASE HELP! Two buff orpingtons & 2 buckeyes
I'm going to post a few at a time so as not to make things too overwhelming. Thank you ahead of time for all you do!

Two silver laced wyandottes. Certain #1 is a roo but thinking #2 may be a roo too! Just slower developing? They are so unbelievably different looking. #2 is huge compared to #1

They all look like pullets to me. They have a 90% guarantee so it is possible you could get a male unless you ordered straight run chicks.

These 2 are my Brahmas. I know they develop slower and I really was sure they were pullets but lately... Lighter one is Lola, darker one is Dwight ( don't ask, that's what you get when you let a 12y/o boy name a chicken)

Ok. Last 2. My golden laced wyandottes. One is a scissor beak with a deformed eye and possibly other issues (named buck beak). She is very active, eats well & holds her own. Will start to work with keeping her beak trimmed down soon. Last 2pics are of the 2nd GLW With a comparison of them together

Hi guys,

Can you give me an opinion on my 9 week old mottled cochin bantam?

Here is a picture from when she was about 4.55 weeks, and the consensus was that she was a roo...I still can't decide....

Thanks much in advance!

The only one that looks a bit suspect to me is the first Buckeye. Can't get the pictures to enlarge so can't be sure. Everyone else is definitely female.
