Sexing Wyandotte chicks

[oldhenlikesdogs]

Both pullets. Roosters don't have the clean lacing like pullets do, their backs stay dark. They also have big red combs as opposed to the smaller ones of the females.

They look very similar to my two silver laced wyandotte’s. Any thoughts on my 6 week olds?

View attachment 1890719 Here’s one of my 16 week old GLWs. Both have been showing a lot color from early on. If you search images, you’ll see very colorful hens.

Beautiful

The chick in question is now officially outside in the coop/run. It is so much bigger than the other 3 Wyandottes that are the same age. It also holds its tail feathers up a lot different than the others. Here are some new pics.

I'm relieved to hear that. We don't need any more roosters.
