Sexing 2 week old Wheaten Ameraucana and Barred Rocks?

[Northstardreams]

I have one wheaten Ameraucana chick and based on picture I've seen, it might be a she? Is that true?

My daughter also got four straight run barred rock chicks hoping to get a future hen or two.
Now I've been looking at a lot of articles on sexing barred rocks and it sounded like by the time they were a week or two it should be pretty easy to tell, but I'm having not much luck. It seemed like even pullets should have a lot more barring that some of these do? If anyone has thoughts we'd be grateful!

Marans 1 and 4 are the ones to watch

Much too young. Post updated pics at 6 weeks of age, showing combs and wattles.

Thanks! As roosters or hens?
Barred Rocks though not Marans.

Oh, oops. Thought I saw white legs.
As roosters.

The wheaten chick, is to young to tell with the pea comb. From the other four, the barring of 1 and 4 look like possible cockerels. My girls were dark with the barring.

You were correct! 2 pullets, and 2 cockerels.

Nice to see an update! I always wonder what the "right" answer was on the sexing threads

What gender was the Wheaten Ameraucana?

A pullet, as I suspected! She sprouted white breast feathers shortly after I posted.
This is her now at 13 weeks. She's a favorite.

That's great!

It is so convenient when you have breeds that can be sexed early by their color, instead of having to wait for other signs later
