atsw Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 ‘Little Bit’ has reached the grand old age of 5 weeks and 3 days. I’m now pretty sure I have a girl. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeramaSilly Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Oh she's lovely - did you say she's an araucana? She's got a very serious look which is really sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, she is a Blue or Black Araucana (I think Blue). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soapdragon Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 It looks as though she is very attached to the bigger chicken - really sweet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 atsw I have 3 week old araucanas. What would I be looking for to sex them? Only ever had pekins, Wyandotte’s and campine chicks before and they were all easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsw Posted July 14, 2020 Author Share Posted July 14, 2020 This is my first Araucana Chick, I’ve had Pekins and Polands before, and as you say, they are easy. For “little bit” she is not showing the usual signs of male behaviour and does not have any sign of a comb forming (coming up to 7 weeks now). So I’m hopeful it’s a girl, but I’m no expert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
