I have five, 8-week olds with momma in a run adjacent to the rest of my flock. Broody hen is DONE with the rowdy teenagers and wants back with the flock... But I fear there is only one pullet in the batch and don't want to leave that one to be integrated on it's own in a couple of weeks.
So - looking for some serious guesses as to the sex of these 8 week olds... The first two have a blue cochin papa and the second three are from my Ameraucana roo.
Raven - blue cochin x black australorp Storm - blue cochin x ?
Arrow - Ameraucana x buff orp or caramel queen Topaz - Ameraucana
Caper - Ameraucana (included for reference as 'she' started crowing a couple of weeks ago...despite promising at birth to be a hen...)
*Note that broody hen has NO time for most of the gang except Arrow and sometimes Raven. Could this be a sign they are pullets?
