Please tell me they are hens

[Jess718]

I posted pics when my girls were 5 weeks but now they are around 8 weeks. The most friendly one Athena- looks like a hen to me. The other three are friendly but not as cuddly as her. And the least friendly but still friendly (and littlest chick) has the most red and largest comb. I didn’t get great individual pictures cause no one would sit still for me. So if I need to send more detailed shots, I can try tomorrow. What do you think?

3rd is the only one I think could be a roo, but everyone else looks like a pullet!

Ok thank you! I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I have a plan if we have a roo but I’m very attached already so I am just hoping we don’t need to use it.

Oops! Not implying the third BIRD, meant the third photo. Unless that’s what you meant lol. Well I’m not always right! In fact sexing chickens doesn’t work a lot of the time lol…. Had some funny results when I thought I knew who was a hen or roo.

Have a good day!

I am not targeting you. At 8 weeks, there’s no way that’s a boy, and I just wanted to give the OP some more assurance. And yes, I do mean the bird in picture 3, but all birds pictured are pullets as well.

Thank you.
