What Breed And Gender

[theevoys]

We picked up five chicks. They are now all doing well and four weeks old. They were straight run and a mixed bag (but supposedly all laying-specific breeds). So we have no idea the gender or breed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here are the photos:

Eggnog






Ginger





Brownie



Sara



Licorice



Thanks again!

Eggnog and Sara look like cockerals. Lots of comb for 4 weeks. Ginger is perhaps a red sex link and Sara looks like a wyandotte, looking back I take that back as legs are wrong color. But looks like a rose comb? Licorice could be a black sex link. Brownie--there's a few different breeds that go look similar, not sure what she is yet.

That's a start, anyway! Post them again in 3-4 weeks so we can see how they look then.

Thanks! I will update a new post in a few weeks. I do believe eggnog is a cockerel. We'll see about the rest. Thanks again...

Eggnog and Sara are boys. I have a female chicken named eggnog, love the name.
