Ok. I went wayyyyyy back to find my buffs at that age.
Also question: did you feather sex them at 1-3 days of age? It’s easy with Orpingtons
Ok here’s yours and the questionable feathers.

And here are mine at the same age. Although there’s a bit of the downward curve on two feathers on one of mine in particular, I remember they fell out by the time she was mature.

They are cute!

Feathersexing within a breed is the same as flipping a coin. It can seem to work but it does not really work.

It can be quite fun though! Feather sexing is only for sex linked breed crosses
 
Good morning all! Though I'd share a pic of my new additions.....Martha is a White Frost and Eleanor is a Black Splash Ameraucana. I needed some color added to my egg basket

Well dang! I must have been lucky then because the difference was unmistakable and I picked three that matched!

Thank goodness they didn’t turn out to be three BOYS! :eek::bow
