Would love some help sexing

[Wannabechicken]

Hi, need help sexing my 7-8 week olds. Thanks so much in advance! All from Hoover's Hatchery unless otherwise noted.

1. Lavender Orpington
2. Welsummer (unknown hatchery)
3. Speckled Sussex
4. Golden Comet
5. Olive egger (unknown hatchery)
6. Americana
7. Mystery breed??? What do you think? Supposed to be a Silver Laced wyandotte
8. Sapphire Gem

They are all pullets, in my opinion.

I would place good money on them all being pullets. At that age I would expect the comb and wattles to be bigger and have more red in them. That said combs and wattles are not a 100% tell all but in my 17 years of experience it is a decent indicator.

#7 is not an SLW. Not too familiar with crested breeds to say what it is.

It's either a cream Legbar or a Legbar type of Easter egger.

I agree with Legbar

It's either a cream Legbar or a Legbar type of Easter egger.

I’m thinking it’s a legbar, it’s definitely not a SLW.

Ooh, totally makes sense. Didn't even know legbars were a breed.

Dang, we really lucked out. Thanks for your input!!

Did they all turn out to be females? I'm super curious to know.
