[mom wewantchicks!]

ok i have posted these guys before. im not overly worried at the moment about what they are,but if i have a bunch of roos!!! im new to chickens and wish id found this site before i got these guys!!! so please help me out!!! as for breed ive been told maybe BA for the black chicks and they do have a green tint to the feathers that im not sure you can see in the pics. they are 6 weeks old and idk i havent seen any roo like behavior,but really idk what that is lol.

I'm a newbie but I wanted to tell you that they are so pretty!!!!! In my inexperienced eye, they look girly to me

I think you got lucky as they appear to be girls, at 6 weeks old. I don't see any really red combs, at all!

Pale comb on 6 - 9 week old Easter Egger pullet...

Reddish comb on 6 - 9 week old Easter Egger cockeral...

Hope this helps!

They look like girls to me, too!

 

[mom wewantchicks!]

thanks so much!! i was hoping they where all girls!! i could keep a rooster but if i had more than one how could i choose!! so anybody got any ideas on breed!!

This is a guess (I'm not great at guessing breeds) but I'm thinking New Hampshire for the reddish one and possibly Australorp for the black ones.

I agree with everybody else on them being girls. At that age my Australorp Roo had a very red comb and wattle.

every time i check back and get another,yeah girls reply, i feel like i could cry!! im soooo glad i shouldnt have to worry about if i have a bunch of roos and cant keep them!! these little guys have really turned me into a chicken lover!! my husband thought id really lost it when i insisted he look very closely at thier eyes. i told him, did you know how much soul and personality a chicks eyes have!! i was hooked!! im hoping the black chicks are BA, they are pretty,and they will match my new BR chicks!! lol

Your two black ones look an awful lot like my black australorp girls did at 6 weeks. Don't have a bird like your red one, so I'm not going to offer an opinion on it.

Another vote for girl

I agree, look like girls to me, but then again, as my sig says (this should be my mantra) I'm no expert!
