ash1293 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I've been keeping chickens for a few years now, mainly a few hybrid layers and buying at POL. Earlier this year one had gone particularly broody so someone gave me some eggs to throw under her. They were supposed to be Old English Game Bantam X Miniature Sikie. Two of the six hatched out (two clear & two didn't fully develop) and they have been lovely little birds. 12 weeks later and it looks like one may be a cock bird which is a shame as I can't really keep because of where I live. Ive included some photos, first one is at about 8-9 weeks the rest last night. If anyone can confirm my fears that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 You need a few more posts (about 5) before you can post pics, so allow me to quote your post so they show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hmm, I'm not all that experienced but I'm thinking your grey-beige one is a chap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash1293 Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 Thanks for the re-post. It certainly seems that way, although its a lovely bird I just can't risk keeping a cock bird where I live so sadly will have to be re-homed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
