The black bar down the front of the legs means that it is still young. Plus the baring is somewhat random and not very organized. And it is darker overall... Kasi

The back two are definitely pullets. I guess the front, lighter one could still go either way, but it looks a bit suspicious to me. Last edited: Jun 25, 2014
