Partridge Cochin chicks

[skbeadle]

Can anyone tell if I have pullets, cockerels, or one of each? Just curious!!

How old? They may be too young to tell yet.
Btw,

They are almost 5 weeks old.

As long as the partridge penciling is coming through on their chests, then you have two pullets. Cockerels, will develop black blotches on their chests, as their chests will eventually be solid black in coloration.

I didn't know that, but they look like pullets anyways!

Yay! If I can get a better picture tonight of their chests and post it will you take a look?!
