Hi fellow fowl lovers! I’m having a hard time trying to figure out what gender my first grandchickens are! They’re 8wks old today and acting like both boys and girls, lol!
Little background: mom is a crested partridge silkie and daddy is a cubalaya maran mix. I personally think #1 and #2 are my cockerels and #3 is my pullet… but I am a green chicken keeper and I’ve read silkie/silkie mixes are hard to sex until a crow is heard… Any guesses or opinions are greatly appreciated! Thank you so much for reading this! Happy farming!
Post Script! Including a few more of #1, since ‘he’ seems to be the hardest to diagnose
