Hi Jackson! Lovely babies! When they are 6-7 weeks, the boys will begin to show their wattles ....Mine are 8 weeks and 3 out of 5 just started crowing! That's the proof! I'll have to find homes for 2. I hope that's all. There's a poultry swap Sat., but we're expecting 1-3" of snow, so I have to wait a month for the next one.....Anyone find a secret for sexing these babies? I have seven two week old spitzhaubens, and would like to at least be able to guess at gender before I start selling the extras! View attachment 1325061

Hi Julia....nice to see more Spitz chicks. They are too young to sex. There is an active Spitzhauben thread, join us with your pics there and we can compare notes....View attachment 1733366 View attachment 1733367 View attachment 1733368 I know this is an older thread but I was looking for opinions. I have five spitz chicks about 3 weeks old that have been very flighty, but one has become very social with me the last few days. It looks as though it might be developing small light pink wattles. Any thoughts?
