Raina Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi all, at what age will i be able to tell what sex the chicks are Just a bit curious as they will be 6 & 7 days old tomorrow and their combs are still the same size as they were the day they hatched Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raina Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi Tasha, They are Silkie X Cream Legbars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Are the combs 'single' or close to the head? if they have single combs you may be able to tell within a few weeks, if they have typical Silkie combs then probably quite a while yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raina Posted April 8, 2010 Author Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi Tasha, I'm not sure,i think they are close to the head. This picture might help (Taken yesterday when the chick was 4 days old) Sorry if it's too big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
