We get pure D'uccles up here in the spring and I have a friend who breeds them I can talk to her and see if she plans in doing some in spring... go figure the OEG would be in the D'uccle geniva has a hard time with her OEG boys they're sneaky and break into all the different pens

Yeah they can be sneaky sometimes.

Ha, like goats! Owners always give me the deer in the headlights look when I tell them their does are pregnant by the neighbor's buck. "But, there's a fence!"
"Doesn't matter. They find a way."

I posted 2 buff Orpington chicks at 6 weeks they are now 8 weeks it was thought female. They both look like this now. I would say their behaviour is hen like
Thanks

Really wow! We only hatched the two and didn't think we would be so lucky! I'm so pleased.
Thank you!

Now 17 weeks old. I posted pics of my mini flock a few weeks ago - everyone responding said pullets with one person saying my Lavender Orpington was looking like it may be a Roo.
The Silkies were just called Silkies - though I'm now starting to think I may have a pair.
So here they are again with 2 pics of the Lav Orp.






I'm including pics of the rest just for fun - still hoping they are all pullets.

All pullets, except the Silkies... I'd bet the non bearded is a cockerel, but the bearded is looking iffy too - the stance is a bit leggy for a hen...

Thanks!
The Silkie in question with the beard almost never gets up like that, in fact that was the only time I've ever seen it do that. I took the pic then as it gave a good comparison of the 2.

I've included some photos of one of my polish chickens, Brownie, who is about 4 months old. Supposed to be female, but now I'm wondering. We trimmed her/his topknot early on, so the shape probably isn't what it should be.







I've also included a pic of our blue cochin rooster, Grayson,'cause he's pretty and it will give you a break in deciding! (There was no question about him from almost the beginning!)

Is this a pullet??
