RIR chicks

[PhlyinPheBee]

Here are 2 of 3 RIR chicks that my Frizzle hen hatched out. Pullet or roo.

2 look like the first one and 1 looks like the last.

What age?

Opps.....3 weeks yesterday. There are 2 with tails and darker wings and 1 with tail feathers just starting and lighter tips to the wings. I did that feather sexing on hatch day and I guessed 2 pullets and 1 roo. Now I am not sure I do not have it backwards. These are for my uncle and I so was hoping for the pullets and a roo.

Also there is no color in any of the combs.

No one really has any ideas at all on these chicks???

Its hard to tell with RIR some times. The hens have a habbit of taking on a very rooster like roll a lot. And the Hens tend to get a large comb like roosters at the early ages. So its really hard to tell. I thought my hen was a rooster for the longest. And that's coming from me - someone who has had chickens all her life.

I hope that I am just over worried and I was right on day one.
