Hi! All of the barred rocks are pullets based on their nice dark coloring. The buff Orps are harder to tell, but so far they look like pullets.
You will need better pictures. Individual side views and comb close ups are helpful. Also, age and breed of the birds are needed. Generally a large reddish comb means it's a cockerel for a chick under 8wks old or so. I can see at least 4 that I expect are cockerels, but without knowing the age and better pictures, I can't be sure.
When I bought them the store owner said that they're about 2 months old and called Cinnamon Queens. I'll try and get better pictures
I've never had any, but Cinnamon Queens are supposed to be sex linked, and you can tell males from females at hatch by color. Those do not look like the pictures of Cinnamon queens that I've seen.
PLEASE tell me she's a girl!
4 week old mille fleur d'Uccle pullet? View attachment 1024057 View attachment 1024055 View attachment 1024058
She's the love of my life, so even if she's a cockerel, I will still find a way to keep her...she's awesome.
Not a barred rock, it would have yellow legs. Maybe a Dominique with the wrong comb type? It has a lot of white, which usually means male for barred birds, but that looks more cuckoo, and not sure if the rule is the same. I think it's possible for a 14 month old pullet to have that much pink comb, but I am really not sure. Leaning toward pullet... let's see what others think.
Pale comb and no wattles at 7 weeks is looking good for a pullet. There's always the occasional late blooming cockerel, but so far so good.
At 4 wks I would truly be guessing. Can you post an update pic in a week or two? Fingers crossed for pullet!Any guesses?
Thanks in advance!
