Lewis Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 Are the CLBs one of each ? I know nutink about sexing them, just wondered They're autosexing so the males have a pale dot on their heads (which both have) but I'm not sure why they look so different Both boys for now, but will have to wait + see what they turn out to be!

craftyhunnypie Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I think your Araucana is a girl. Looks so different to what Poppet the cockerel looked like. Fingers crossed eh? I love the barred wyandotte! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 I think your Araucana is a girl. Looks so different to what Poppet the cockerel looked like. Fingers crossed eh? I love the barred wyandotte! Really? Not had one before or seen many chicks, fingers crossed! I know, mother calls them 'zebra chickens' so hoping its a girl too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted May 27, 2010 Author Share Posted May 27, 2010 Cream Legbars: Lavender Araucana (no comb yet + big wings - hoping for a girl): Barred wyandotte: Tiiiny wings - could that mean male? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmab Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 They are just lovely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meezers Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Well I read that big wings= girl, small wings = boy, but I suppose it's in proportion to the chick?, the last chick looks a little smaller than the other one ? Doesn't help with my 3, I've got the 2 biggest chicks with wing feathers showing, but the one with none is the smallest chick anyway, so I'm just confused !

The Dogmother Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 It's hard to tell at that stage, I once tried using the wing feather technique and was wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madchook Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 I'm pretty sure your Ara is a boy. But I take back my bet on your legabars, haven't a clue now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batcatz Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 I think the lavender is a boy too from that standing still photo. Very long legs, upright stance, wings low etc. Looks different to hens I've seen at that age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
