Sexing 2 showgirl chicks

[Mae98]

Chick #1


Chick #2




They have pink colored combs, but no sign of waddle growth and no raise in their combs. 2+ months old, I know still pretty young but what are your guesses!

The darker chick appears to have a more of a point to it’s tail and holds its tail upwards more
The lighter chick appears to have a more rounded tail that is carried downward toward the ground

I’ve never had showgirls but it does look to me like you have a pullet (lighter chick) and cockerel (darker). My NN pullet around the same age has color in her very small comb and wattle like your showgirl.

That is what I am thinking also. Yesterday I happened to witness the darker chicken pulling one of my sizzle chicks by her head poof (she is like double his size) such ruthless little creatures sometimes

They really can be! Watching them interact can be fascinating.
