Roo or Pullets.... Picture heavy

[CCCCCCCCHICKENS]

I don't think your first 2 chicks are EE, they look more like partridge Rocks, something like that.

The barred birds--yellow legs and straight comb=Rock. white/pink legs and straight comb=Marans yellow legs and rose comb=Dominique

The birds you're calling red leghorns--I'm not seeing that breed at Cackle? I'd also expect anything Leghorn to have more comb at this stage. They could be Welsummers, or pretty much anything partridge based, from what I can see.

X2.

Red leghorns are pretty rare and I don't know of any hatchery who carries them.

Agree in Partridge Rocks. Look just like mine!

I meant brown leghorns (I must not have been awake when I posted this morning)

Must be wishful thinking for EEs... They look like partridge rocks. I Couldn't see the leg coloring on cackles page so I must have skipped over them. ... I want EEs.. darn means more chicks bwahaha.

Two of the barred chicks legs are dark like this

And the other two are lighter like this

New pictures @ 6.5 weeks old still playing the guessing game on breeds for the two types of brown ones. Leaning towards Welsummers for the three that had "masks" as chicks and the other two are Partridge rocks. I don't see anyone that screams roo at this point but one Barred rock is kinda acting like it... What do you guys think?









The next few pictures are he/she questionable...

















HELP... I know I could have better pictures but they were busy running around in my dog kennel chicken tractor...

The lighter barred rocks are males and the darker are females.

Yeah the one lighter one is who I was thinking is a roo. He is very friendly. So long as he stays that way he will stay out of the stew pot.

Updated pictures of my moving monsters. They weren't too interested in sitting still or being held. They are just shy of 9 weeks old. Anyone that screams roo?

 

[Table4Six]

They all look like pullets to me.

The BR in the 7th pic acts like a roo but he's dark colored like the rest. Ugh I give up lol. I have 5 new chicks to play the guessing game with.

Fast forward and I am happy to report they are ALL pullets and are getting into pre laying mode
