Redwing Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I am going with girl but until pic three I was thinking it was a boy Really pretty little thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I'll say girl too. By that age I knew for sure my two Leghorns were boys, their head gear grows so quickly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pearcie Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 hi do people still think girl at 6 weeks very worried posted the older photos on another forum and some say boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 No.....look at those hackle feathers....they are rounded. I'd be very surprised if she wasn't a girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Definite girl - ditto to what Eglutine has said, plus head gear would be a lot more developed by now! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pearcie Posted June 5, 2009 Author Share Posted June 5, 2009 thank you to be honest i do think girl but does make you wonder when others say it may be a boy nice to have some reassurence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smanners Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Wow that's been really helpful for me as I have an identical exchequer leghorn chick 3 and a bit weeks old. So mine hopefully is a girl too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solopuff Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I'd say girl too. I raised two of these last year (one of each) and by 5 weeks there was a distinct difference as the boy had a definate crown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
