Here is the chick that we took from it's shell because it was dead from accidentally collecting it from underneath the hen. This was about four days ago.

How old are your chicks from Don? I hatched some of his out about 6 weeks ago and I still can't tell cockerels from pullets.

I am not positive on their age. I am guessing around 4 weeks. I may have it all wrong but in my experience some cockerels are just easy to spot. Not always true but I go by these signs: later to develop feathers, bigger/thicker legs, shorter wings, wattles/comb larger and redden out sooner, tail carriage and look/attitude. My way is not the gospel and I have been fooled many times. I will try to post some pics later.

Okay here are the buffs I got from Don. He will have to chime in but I am thinking around 3-4 weeks.

The first easy to spot cockerel. He is on the left in 2nd pic. I am not sure about the one on the right maybe a slower developing cockerel too.



left probably pullet, right cockerel



Pullets Pullet



These are my guesses at this time. I didn't have any help so couldn't get better pics or pics of all of them. I welcome any other opinions or more qualified sexing. I have only had Orps for about a year and these are my first buffs and I am not familiar with them or their line.

Hi all. I just started with chickens. I got them at a "chick day" event at a local feed and grain supply store. I really wanted a ORP but they didn't have any available like they were supposed to. So now I am looking for a breeder in the CT area.
Thanks
