Sexing crested breeds

[Kjd247]

I know it's early! They are about a month old. I'm just so excited! I ordered 10 straight run mix crested breeds from ideal. I think 6 survived. I think I know their breeds, but am curious if anyone would give it a go for the sexes of these.

Any ideas would be appreciated!

They are a bit young. Update in a few weeks. They are also adorable.

Too young... cuties

They're too young. But as they get older "puff" crests are often pullets, and "mohawk" crests are often cockerel. That's how it's been with our Silkies. BUT it's not always so cut and dry. I've seen many examples on these forums of birds (especially Silkies LOL) that will surprise you when they crow or lay an egg.

I personally love the assortments that hatcheries send out it's like the blind bags but with chickens. Unfortunately we already have more chickens than is legal for our neighborhood

It has been very exciting for us to see which breeds we received and while waiting to figure out sexes!

With Spitzhaubens, you'll start to see red wattles on the boys around 7 weeks.

Same with non bearded polish.

They are all really cute. I’m of no help though. But I’d take them
All home with me if I could!
