Splash Orpington....Hattie or...Harold??

[samandemsmommy]

This is Hattie. 3 week old Splash Orpington chick. She is the tiniest chick still. I know it's early, but any thoughts so far on boy or girl? My opinion is Hattie is Hattie... she just looks little and delicate...but, I could be wrong. LOL

At this age it's still hard to tell. But she/he sure is a cutie!

My orpington pullets were getting feathers down their back and tail feathers by about 2 weeks. My cockerels didn't feather nearly as fast. So I would say Harold. Sorry.

I'm saying cockerel, that's a big comb for 3 weeks old! Sorry

It is too young to tell.

What was the verdict?

 

[samandemsmommy]

Hen...but she died.

 

[campingshaws]

So sorry to hear that.

Hen...but she died.

I'm sorry for your loss.
