What Gender are these 2 cochins?

[nlbeardmore]

I have posted numerous pics on here over last few days of my chicks and have found it very useful.

I have 2 queries left as we are seperating the boys and the girls.

Are the 2 below boys or girls?

Chick 1-




Chic 2 ---- The one in question is on the left


this is it by itself - its wattles and comb are clearly smaller i think but im unsure

They both look like girls to me, but I'm not an expert on cochins.

I think girls too. How old are they? I have a grey cochin that's a little bigger and about 18 weeks old and her comb and wattles look the same as them.

They are 6 weeks old, however there is just a big difference in comb size compared to the roos of the same age which is why we are so unsure. Is there anything for us to look out for?

If they are 6 weeks old, all 3 of those in your hands are boys...

I think the one on hte left is a hen and the other 2 are roos

i'm leaning toward 1 pullet and 2 cockerels

chick one is the only chick that might be a pullet...but it also looks to be a little boy

All are boys for sure. My cochins were very pale/small right up until week 20. My boys combs were small at 8 weeks, but pink like this.

8 week old cochin boy.

14 week old cochin girl (mixed with BR, but it's still relevant)

okay, at 6 weeks I agree with chick one being the only pullet also.
