Sexing Bantam Cochin *Pics Added*

[Violetsfeathers]

I could use some help. I ordered 6 eggs from a breeder, 3 Columbian Cochins & 3 White. I noticed that the Columbian eggs were a tad larger and darker in color . I hatched out 2 Whites and 2 Columbian, the Columbian are larger chicks and seem to mature faster.
This is my first time to hatch Bantam Cochins, they are 8 weeks and I still cant tell the boys from the girls! (Much easier with large breed). Is it normal for one color to be larger than another. I will post pictures today.

Yes I have noticed some of the different colors are bigger/ mature faster than others. If need help telling which are boys and girls send pictures.

Need help sexing these two just got them yesterday and am hoping for pullets. Combs are yellowish but one seems to be a bit longer than the other.

Can you post face pics of each one, they don't look 100% Cochin.

Okay, I'm getting a Cochin in about two weeks. It will be three days old then, is there anything that I should look for?

At this distance they look like they're both pullets to me.

Three days is way too young to sex them, I think you should know for sure in 1-3 months

Okay, thank you. As soon as they're that I'll post some pictures
