The Welsummer Thread!!!!

[OohLaLa]

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Can anyone with more experience help me sex these three? This first on (a girl I think) is physco and is attacking everyone badly. I have had to put her in time out. What do you do with a day old chick so aggressive that she is about to peck the eyes out of another?[/FONT]

Hi OohLaLa, do they all have defined V coloring on their heads and dark chipmunk-like stripes down their backs? Do you have a photo of the three of them from above?

Any ideas? I know they are only a day old, but my novice self thought this breed would be easy due to their markings to ID. I ordered 2 girls and one rooster...is that what I received? The rooster is for my sweet hubby who has been very patient, I would really like to know which one it is so I can give it to him. Thanks y'all for your assist with a newbie

My baby welsummer looked like a "she" to a lot of people due to the dark eyeliner and whatnot, but I can report he is now a very large cockerel. Here are some pictures of the baby, and how he turned out:







(If it's unclear, he's the one in back

)

OohLaLa, those look like girls to me, but I'm fairly new to this! Those are great photos for the more experienced folks to weigh in on!
