Hello.
I have got 5 7wk old brahma chicks and im slowly beginning to see the differences between the sexs. I have got 2 and 3 of the same sex (i THINK anyway haha) but i am unable to tell which is what at the moment as this is my first time hatching. 3 of them have bigger combs growing on their head, but the other 2 (with the smaller combs) are alot more red. The chicks themselves are growing just as quick as each other, all have very simular temperment and the same feather shape (male feathers are more pointed). Which ones are the girls and which ones are the boys? Are there anyother ways of sexing brahma chicks at this young age? I have uploaded 2 pictures of the different combs to help. Thanks.
