Hey there chicken people,
I recently ordered chicks from McMurray Hatchery. I ordered 5 Whiting True Blues, 5 Welsummers, and 5 Cream Legbars. They threw in a free mystery chick as well. I received only 13, three less chicks than expected, and with the mystery chick and three missing, I'm not sure what I got! I THINK they sent me cream legbar males. I ordered 5 sexed females, and only got one grey-yellow chick with a stripe. Cream Legbars SHOULD be easy for McMurray to sex by coloring.
Here's my question: What have your different colored Whiting True Blues looked like as day-old or week-old chicks? In your opinion, is it possible for WTB females to look like Cream Legbar males at a week old? I have two that are kind of yellow and two that are kind of grayish yellowish (these are the ones I think are the CL males) What do you think??
