I had a lot of chicks hatched this spring and I have 3+ roosters in my flock until next Sunday! I can't tell these 4 apart though in gender! I have 3 crowing roosters, so I am wondering if others will dare crow too. Thoughts on what to look for? They keep distance between us lol so it's hard to tell. Any behaviors or things I should look for at this age? I also added a picture of Mom and Dad!

Oh my goodness! I am so sorry for not replying! I think I lost your post out of all the rest! The one in all black is definitely a pullet and all the rest look like cockerels. The mom and dad are beautiful!

pullet, lovely!

Really??? Quite a few people have been saying cockerel! How sure would you say you are? Oh I do hope that you're right!!

I believe that I have only one cockerel, he is the only light colored one. Here are some pictures. Be glad for a conformation. They are 7 week old Plymouth Rocks.

Sorry for not responding on time, Yes, you definitely only have one cockerel, he his surprisingly handsome!

My husband thinks this 5 week old naked neck is a cockerel. Thoughts? Let me know if you need more pics. It's hard to see which are good on my phone.

Pullet

And this SLW? Cockerel? I'm trying to make sure these are all boys before I post them free on Craigslist!

Rooster

My two 9 week old mix from a RIR rooster and EE Hen. One may be a week behind. The buddy I got them from just had a mess of chicks and he thought these two where the same age. But I am thinking one is a little younger.

Still can't tell myself.

Both look like pullets

I can tell with my other breeds, but not so well with EE's. Hopefully the names my nieces gave them fit their gender

Thanks in advance! Hopefully the pictures are good enough

Pullets

What gender is this 4 month old Light Bantam Brahma?

Is this an EE? Hatched in my daughters classroom, about 12 weeks old, so don't know breed. Rooster or hen? Hoping not a rooster, we aren't allowed to have them in our city!

EE pullet

10 week old Light Brahma...hoping for a pullet!

Rooster

Last 2. Both 12 ish weeks, guessing RIR's, hoping for pullets! They are identical in comb/wattles with hardly any red development. Only difference I can see is one has a really downturned rump section. Am not sure if that means different gender or natural variation?!
My kids call the weird rump one "Putters" because of his/her rear issues

Pullets

The partridge cochin is a rooster. Sorry, I didn't explain right. The picture below with the California white has a big comb but I think it is a pullet. I don't think I see a white cochin.

The white one and they greyis

He is but I can't do 3 roosters in a flock of only 8 chickens
