The Olive-Egger thread!

[Newyorkrita]

One of the olive eggers is showing a comb starting to grow and I can really notice it while the other one and the real BCM chick with it both have nothing nothing noticeable. So does this usually mean it's a boy? Or just an early starter and not necessarily a sign either way? Since its my very first batch of chicks I am really wanting to learn.

Mine are 5 1/2 weeks now. I think that I have 3 blue girls and 2 black boys. One of the blacks is diffently a BOY! The other one I think is, but he is just a lot smaller and has 1 white feather on his hip near his tail. Here are some pictures.

All of them

Two boys?
