Ruby or Ruben...confused already

[amber757]

Why didn't someone tell me years ago how much you can love a chicken? My "girls" are about 7 weeks old and I already see so many different personalities. Some are smugglers and some aren't. I am really fond of three in particularly, but I am worried that all my "girls" may not be girls! I don't know what I would do if Ruby was really a Ruben! Help....can some of you experienced chicken lovers tell who is whom in my flock?

Thanks a million!

Alright

great to have you joining the BYC flock

BYC has a very useful learning center

For us to get any idea we need to see a photo first ...

Hello and Welcome To BYC! You might want to post pictures of the birds you aren't sure on in the What Breed Or Gender Is This Forum for help in figuring out who is what. https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/15/what-breed-or-gender-is-this

This isn't gospel but, in the first picture both birds are standing in a very rooster-like pose.

Welcome to BYC

Post some more pics of them in the Breed/Gender section so we can have a look.

Welcome to BYC!

Very cute birds! X2 on posting in our What Gender section for help with the sexes. I hope they are pullets as they are just adorable!

Welcome to our flock!

Here are a few more picks of my Production Red in question. Absolutely love this chicken. Praying its a hen.

At two months, I am not seeing much that looks too rooish. The comb is large, but not red as a cockerel might have at this age. Not seeing any hackle feathers growing yet. So I vote pullet. At least for now.
