kitbag Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Hi guys! As some of you may know, at the end of last month, nearly a 4 weeks ago, two little chicks hatched. I have no idea what breeds they are, or whether they are boys or girls! As you can imagine I really would quite like to know. So..... introducing: Sybil: And Molly: Any of your thoughts would be so so helpful! Thanks in advance! Megan xxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falkor Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 Hi Not sure on breeds sorry but I would say boys if they are not yet four weeks. Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitbag Posted September 17, 2010 Author Share Posted September 17, 2010 Thanks Falkor! It's good though - I have a friend that said she would happily have them if they were boys! xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abwsco Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I'd say boys as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 4 weeks with combs like that I'd say boys too, Megan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I'd say boys too, albeit with my limited experience. I read somewhere that only boys leave their legs down when you pick them up like that at a young age, and have found that to be true with mine so far. The combs are also quite large for their age. My girls had less comb at more than twice that age. They are really pretty birds though, bet they will be stunning when they grow up!

kitbag Posted September 22, 2010 Author Share Posted September 22, 2010 Thanks for your thoughts guys! We are going to keep them with their mum for a bit longer, then they will be off to their new home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 I'd say probably boys too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitbag Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 Hi guys! thanks for all your comments! It's not that i don't trust you all but i just want to make extra doubley sure now that they are older! They are nearly 10 weeks now - I can't believe it! So... Here is Molly And Sybil Thanks guys! xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Still boys. That's an awful lot of red head gear going on for ten weeks. I've got some chicks that are older and those girls have no comb whatsoever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 Boys, sorry. Their headgear is massive compared to that of my two 10 week old girls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
