Our first go at this chicken thing!

I'm hoping we only have girls but I'm still not 100%. We've got some Easter eggers, barred rock, red sex link, and golden and silver laced Wyandots.

How many weeks are they?

How many weeks are they?

11 weeks right now. A few of them have a little brighter red faces but the comb isn't any bigger from what I can tell. I guess we will find out soon though....

Thank you! The stained glass was in one of our bathroom windows we took out of our house when we bought it. The attached run is 24' x 8' x 8' for my 11 birds and I think it's going to work out alright.

Thank you!

Take pictures and put on here, it's easy to tell a 11 week old chick cockerel or hen

Mine started to herd me so if that happens it's a cockerel

These two are the ones that I suspect might be roosters but I can't see that much difference that really has me 100% sold. They don't corral me or have a different temperament that I've noticed, just brighter red coloring.

The first one looks like a hen, but if u could get a side picture of the second one and look for a different type of feathers on the side near their tail
