And the other 1? And, the third one also has a comb and waddle now, so guess I only ended up with one pulletThe one with the biggest comb is 100% cockerel.

Yikes! Not a very good percentage, lol, maybe you'll get better next time around?And the other 1? And, the third one also has a comb and waddle now, so guess I only ended up with one pullet![]()
Right now I have a hen on 16 eggs, so we shall see. The other hen was on 12 but only 4 hatched; one died hatching, one I dropped candling (it was not fertilized but man did it stink!) and the rest I threw out because they weren't hatching.Yikes!

(Yikes, that's not very good luck at all! Praying for your next batch.)Right now I have a hen on 16 eggs, so we shall see.

Newer pictures? They can change on a daily basis!
I'll try to get out when it stops raining. The 3rd chick's comb doesn't look red, more pinky/beige.Newer pictures? They can change on a daily basis!
Ok here are some pics. 2 have the biggest reddest combs and are the ones who fight. 1 has a small comb but it is not red, and one has nothing.Newer pictures? They can change on a daily basis!
Ok interesting. I was thinking the 2 in the first pic are cockerels (they're the ones who fight) and the second 2 pics are pullets (definitely the 3rd one anyway, still unsure about the one in the second pic...).First pic is one pullet and one cockerel. Second pic is a cockerel. Third pic is a pullet.
Just guesses....
