Sexing 4week old chicks?

[Allipockets]

Hello everyone! I know it's probably not possible to have my chickens sexed this early, I'm also not a hundred percent sure on how old they are! LOL I bought these five about 2 weeks ago, the lady said she doesn't know how to sex chicks so she was selling them. When I got them home I found poultry lice (which my older girls don't have) she denied that any of her birds have poultry lice. So long story short, I'm incredibly concerned that I just bought 5 roosters. She said she had two roosters, so they are either mixed with light Brahma or speckled Sussex.

Glad you took them in and treated them! It'll be best to post pictures at 8-10 weeks, so that we can more definitely tell gender. No one looks like a cockerel for now, but that could change in the next few weeks. Look for reddened combs and wattles, as that's the best first indicator of a cockerel.

Nobody's screaming cockerel as of yet. We shall see how that pans out over the next several weeks!
