Old Speckled Hen Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Please....... I thought we might have 2 girls and three boys, now I'm not so sure....perhaps only the one hen. They are just over 5 weeks. Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I'd say the top one is a hen and the others are cockerels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckmum6 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Top one is a girl, the rest look like boys, the paler one seems a little more questionable, but I would say 4 boys - that's bad luck really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I'd say the same but I've been caught out with a couple of maran crosses were the girl had a bigger comb than the boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Thanks It's what I thought. Was hoping for two for the flock and three to eat. Oh well....try again next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I wouldnt put money on the top one being female, its surprisingly sp"Ooops, word censored!"ly feathered for a female Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted June 10, 2013 Author Share Posted June 10, 2013 Oh no Redwing....are you saying they are ALL boys? I must admit they are the ugliest looking babies I have had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
