Hi Richard. Bit early, but I would say one is certainly a cockerel and 3 more probables and couple of possibles. 50:50 pullets to cockerels anyway, so presumably you bought them as little chicks or hatched them yourself? What are they exactly?

Thanks chris for reply... i got 10 of them from a friend and the fox had 2 of them away.... im not sure what thy are even the person i got them from does not know either she got eggs from every where and hatch them out.... :?

there was 4 white chicks that are turning red....

4 that were white and gray but most of the white is gone lots of gray on them now...

1 little black one

and that brown one im sure he is a cockerel :roll:

That brown one Richard, first photo 2nd row, is the one I had as a certain. Easy to guess the breeds at this stage but you will have a better idea when they are 6 months old. Grey maybe Marans. Reds might be Rhode Island Reds. Most likely they are crosses -mixtures of breeds. But if they give you eggs and behave themselves what more could you want?

I think you have at least 1 cockrell in this lot,not sure the breed they look like some sort of mixes.

it seems no one can tell yet there still to young.... but thanks for you input tygrysek75.....
