Gotta love those d’Anvers. Cute Faverolles, btw.

These are just my own cell phone shots of the questionable one. I thought to myself that this is a cockerel that's just not coloring up as fast. It's the volume of its comb compared to the other two I think are pullets, plus that little dingle doodle thing that sticks up is showing.

Also, a video of said chick. It decided laying down was fine. These chicks are so chill.

The one with the biggest reddest comb is already crowing.

Oh really? Thank you so much. I thought number 2 was a male. I added some pictures of their feathers. The first one is one week older by the way.

Hello everyone, I'm back. I skipped week 5 since it didn't seem like they'd grown very much.

We've been experiencing a deluge of rain these past few days, so some of my birds are pretty ugly looking and dirty. I'm not sure if I should try to bathe them or let them sort it out themselves. That said, this time I took some boring photos and labeled them accordingly.

I know this is the gender thread, but I'm still accepting guesses for what colors you'd call most of these. I know the orange one is a red mille fleur and I've got some porcelains in there but I duno about the lavender mixes.

Nipple is my favorite cockerel. If I was gonna try keeping any of them it would probably be him 'cause he's pretty looking and chill. And his comb is silly looking and makes me laugh. I'm not sure how loud they are when they crow but if I can figure out if no crow collars work for little bantams like these I think that would be better than having to give him away.

Birds 3, 4, and 6 are your cockerels.

Do you know when I would be able to know for sure on the other three? I thought the mille fleur was gonna be a pullet full stop, but she play fights with the other roosters a lot.

Pullets can spar just as hard as cockerels. I feel confident that the sex we're seeing now is what you're going to get. The other 3 are pullets.
