Silver Laced Wyandotte Chick Sex

[Jayman77]

Anyone able to help me out with sexing these four SL Wyandotte chicks? I bought 6 fertilised eggs and put them under a broody hen and got these 4. From reading around the forums, I’m concerned I have at least 3 and possibly four cockerels

Can obviously supply many more photos if needed

They look around 4ish weeks? We need to know age when sexing.

I can tell that they are young enough that you will need to post updated pics in a few weeks. Wyandottes can be tricky. Pullets sometimes pink up early.

I lean cockerel on the first one though.

Sorry, didn’t post age. My bad. They are 6 weeks plus a day or two

Post updates around 8 weeks old.

Ok, will do
Thanks

I’d say 3 are Males and one pullet! Definitely update in a few weeks!

Thanks for the input. I’m somewhat afraid you’re going to be 100% correct. Looks like in a few months my wife might be taking the kids out for the day and there will be quite a bit of free range chicken on the menu!

Well I hope I’m wrong, but in a few weeks it will be easier to tell!
