Sebrights and D'uccle 6 weeks now. Boys, girls? Lots of pics!

[Justanother Brooke]

Okay, the banties are 6 weeks old now, and I think I know what we have, but am looking for some more expert opinions than my own.

The sebrights, I think we have a pair. I believe the silver (Frackle) is a boy, and the golden (Frickle) is a girl. What do you think?

Now, for the D'uccle (Fraggle). She/He had almost no color in the comb up until right about 5 weeks. I have read that with this breed, by 3 or 4 weeks, the males have a very pronounced comb, but I have never been around them, so I'm strictly going off of info on here. In the last week, she/he has developed color in the comb, but it is much closer in color to the Golden Sebright than the Silver Sebright. More of a kind of medium pink than red.

Here's a picture of the three of them together for some comparison. Thanks so much for your help!

i think they're all boys because my pullets comb didn't come until they started laying

They have what I call the "I can stare you down" roo look in their eyes.

I have one silver sebright & she had no comb until really late. Even now her comb is not as large as your golden sebright. I think 3 roos also.

I don't know about the d'uccle, but both sebrights look like roosters.

I have a cockerel and a pullet a few weeks older than yours, and the pullet has almost no comb (as in, you can look at it closely and say, "Oh, that's a rose comb"), and the cockerel has a ginormous comb, and he's been getting in some nice wattles too.
He is delightful though.

And pretty!

I don't know the answer cz I am new to chickens. But, just wanted to say that your chicks have amazing eyes.

I'm no expert but I'm going to go against what the others are saying and agree with you. 2 girls, one boy. Your D'uccle has no waddle and is too pink in my opinion to be a boy. The sebright seems too pink too. I'd be interested when you figure it out if you would re-post.

I think both of your Sebrights are boys. I'm on the fence on the D'Uccle but leaning toward pullet.
