Sundheimer Chicks

[truecloud]

Hello there,

We are based in Germany and recently purchased three unsexed Sundheimer chicks. I am not sure if anyone has any knowledge of them but I thought I would start a thread to ask for help sexing them in the weeks to come.

Here are their cute fuzzy 2 week old self for now and will update as they change...

They are far to young to sex but seeing how the last chick stands i would say rooster but again its WAY to young to sex.

Guten Tag! Freut mich!!! Welcome to Back Yard Chickens, from the US!

Agree with above about their age, but they are such cute little fluffy butts!

Kinda young still. 6 weeks of age is about the youngest for starting to guess sex.

Thanks guys! No worries, I am aware they are too young, but thought I would start the thread now to keep a record of events. Plus anyone with similar chickens might be interested in the future.

I've never heard of this breed before, so I looked them up. They look like light Sussex with feathered legs. I'm surprised Greenfire hasn't imported stock to the U.S. yet because I am sure they'd find a following here.

I believe it's the feathery legs and slightly larger tail plumage that separates them from the Sussex!

WOW! So I looked them up now too... LOL They look like white legged light brahma's with single combs!

Plus white ears, I think. Though, totally new to this!

Mmm The pics I'm looking at on google look like they have red earlobes.
