Duster and Bumble are pullets

 

The last one is male

 

I would expect the second one to have more of a comb if it was male so at five weeks old I would say its female but wouldnt stake money on it! It is supposed to be a blue but there is colour leakage there so just a cross colour rather than an official colour

Thanks Redwing

The second one is the one I am not sure about it is much bigger than both the mottled girls both in stature and has a bigger comb and wattles just like the blue boy but it's comb and wattles are not as pink as the blue boys I guess time will tell :pray: I just knew blue was a boy he is gorgeous :roll:
