Pullet or Cockerel check on our chickens (10-11 weeks)

[ChickenOfSpades]

We have four young chickens that we got as sexed chicks. They all still like pullets to me, but admittedly have no idea how to tell (other than they look pullet-ish compared to other people's internet photos).

"Puffpuff" the Buff Orpington

"Popcorn" the Blue-Laced Red Wyandotte

"Chiquita" the Black Australorp

"Patrice" the Barred Plymouth Rock

Girls congrats but your blue laced red wyandotte is actually black laced red sorry thats just the genetics of blue color breeding

No she is not She is definitely blue laced red although I agree that black laced red does pop up with breeding

I was wondering about that actually. They had them sorted as blue laced and and gold laced, so we tried to get a blue...but I'm not mad about it either way, she's very pretty...and a little feisty, haha.

The black around her feathers and her black butt fluff, if she was blue laced it would be blue around the feathers and blue fluff. She is a pretty girl though
