Apparently, when they hatch the girls head shaping is more sharp, better defined than the boys.  When I hatched 3 bantam welsummers I decided 2 girls and 1 boy and I was right!!!

So in first pic, the diamond on the head looked dimmer, but in second photo looks well defined, so I'm going with girl too!

but we thought my 2 were girls by their markings and they weren't if you remember Grannie  ::)
Staffies are softer than you think.

But were we, at the time, looking at how clear or fuzzy the markings were, or just the colouring??

So, I think that makes it so far

2 = Girl

0 = Boy

If God spares it to grow up I will search for this thread and let you all know, that way with the pictures etc it might help some other people.  :)

But keep the 'educated' guesses coming  :lol:

From my limited guessing game after 4 hatches it looks like a girl to me.
