Wyandotte gender?

[kellybea73]

I have a 10 week old Blue Laced Red and a couple 8 week old gold laced. Based on your pictures and what mine look like I am thinking the blue is a girl and the gold might both be roo's. Might have to post pictures and let yall tell me since I am new to this.

I'm new this this too. You may get more responses if you create your own thread though.

Update for those looking for reference. They are now 14 and 12 weeks old. The 2 silver laced and one gold laced appear to be pullets. The other gold laced is still a cockerel lol.

It is too early to be sure. Wyandottes are very hard to sex, especially when they're young.Of all of them, #2 and #3 look the most pullet-y.

It looks like you have a pair of Gold Laced Wyandottes. Your darker Silver Laced Wyandotte looks like a pullet, but I'm not sure about the lighter one. It has a fairly large comb, but has nice lacing like a female. My guess right now would be pullet, but I would post more pictures in a few weeks

They are hatchery birds. The older one has a straight comb. I think it's fairly small for a straight comb at 14 weeks so I think it's a pullet. I could be wrong though. I don't have any breeds with a straight comb.

Since the larger size is because of the single comb, I bet it is a pullet

Sorry to jump in on someone else's thread, but I cannot figure out how to start a new one from my phone

I'm afraid to ask this as I'm sure I know the answer...is my Wyandotte a Rooster? If this were another breed, I'd be certain, but i've scoured BYC for hours and am seeing very mixed info because Wyandottes are hard to sex. Biting the bullet and asking what I don't want the answer to...
