I know older than 6 to 7 weeks old asking Houdini's breeder right nowHow old? Maybe splash with leakage but that could just be the photo.
I am seeing curled tail feathers though and it's pea combed all are even except right at the beginning towards the head one is bigger than the rest in the middle rowI know older than 6 to 7 weeks old asking Houdini's breeder right now
Tail feathers don't mean anything at this age. I've heard that '3 row sexing' isn't always accurate.I am seeing curled tail feathers though and it's pea combed all are even except right at the beginning towards the head one is bigger than the rest in the middle row
Agreed- I’d say pullet but could be surprised in a few weeks. And especially for EEs pullets can have arched tail feathers- they hint at cockerel tails but not quite. The three row pea comb myth is just that- it’s not sex determinant. And my color guess would be white with lots of black leakage- splash to me is a clean white background with specific areas of black popping through. She’s going to be a pretty bird!Tail feathers don't mean anything at this age. I've heard that '3 row sexing' isn't always accurate.
If it's about 8 weeks isn't, I'd expect a more pronounced and pink comb for cockerel but it could be a late bloomer
