Here is mine, which I was told at purchase was an araucana, but have just been informed is an Orloff. I think he's a boy - he is 3-4 months old and not crowing yet, but showing some cockerel behaviour and seems to have the right posture. (S)he is incredibly tame and walks over and stands on my foot I too I pick him up! Won't be able to get rid of this one either way!

At 3-4 months old and that red in the comb area my guess would be roo too. At least that's how it has turned out with both sets if mine On a sad note one of the 2nd hatch chicks passed on this morning. We noticed yesterday that it wasn't eating, drinking or pooing and just stood alone droopy. It slept with me last night, being as it was one of the last ones to hatch and one of the two that still look a couple of days old at almost a week old now. Those two are round as a perfect clementine and barely have wing tip feathers whereas the rest have almost complete wings of feathers. As the one was going downhill this morning what I thought was a bone (trying to figure out what was happening with it) was actually a rock-hard tiny crop. My guess is that it ate some of the shavings and they blocked the crop. I usually don't introduce grit until week 2 when they are more active and roosting. Oh well, it wasn't meant to be. Almost 70 here today! It's great to see the chickens sunbathing and dusting.
