This cockerel is growing out nicely.

First time chicken mom. I ordered two 4-9 week old pullets. I assumed when my birds actually shipped I would be provided a hatch date but it was not available. Is this common? They were fully feathered when I received them. I know the pictures aren't the best, but any age estimates would be appreciated. Of note, the girls are now starting to get their wattles, still very small but definitely developing.

Since they are older..... do they guarantee the sex?

I just wonder....because in that first photo, the right one sure has a very bright comb.

As to age... I am bad at guessing

I would check her over carefully for any injuries.

Then give her electrolytes and a quiet place with feed and water to recover.

Thank you Alaskan, Iam sorry for such a late reply I give her electrolytes, held her and patted her. I have also got 2 more gold laced Wyandottes.

and another silver laced pullet

I have padlocks placed on the coop and run now. I also recent got 2 blue laced red wyandottes, yes chicken math, that's 7 Wyandottes total now as well as 23 other pullets.

As people know, Silkies are my focus...

However, my Mam got these two birds a few months back for in her flock and I was wondering if I'm right in guessing there Wyandottes?
