Redwing Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Any guesses on whether my two bargain auction Pekin chicks are girls or boys? I cant help thinking they must be boys if they ended up at auction but you never know! Going by Claret's practiced eye it appears they are about 12 weeks old Smurf Sky I was going to find these a good home and sell them on but am getting very attached to them so I doubt they will be going anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom123 Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 girls defiantly. When i picked up my chicks who are 8-10 week old the boys had BIG combs and you could easily tell the difference. Go on keep them! Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I feel I might have to chook nap them Tasha, sorry it has to be done. so cute!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I say girls When I got mine (they were the same age ) my little chickpea had a bigger comb than that and she strutted, I was very worried she might be a boy, but then she layed an egg and crouched and became all girly So I'd say girlies I will also like to chook nap them, sorry Cookie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I would say Smurf is definitely a smurfette Sky.... 50-50 for me (the comb is slightly bigger) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 ahhh but scramble I live closer to Tasha than you do.. I can beat you to it, mind you Tasha would beat me if I tried to take her babies.. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I would say Smurf is definitely a smurfette Sky.... 50-50 for me (the comb is slightly bigger) I thought the opposite Hopefully if they are 12 weeks they're girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
