What sex do you think they are?

and what do you think the little black with yellow bits is (aracauna cross)?  doesn't really look like a aracauna does it?

best guesses please.

mine and grannie annies black araucana chicks have yellow bits on them especially on their bums (and both of ours are pure breeds not crosses)  :).

oh, great.  He gave it us as he wasn't sure which it was mated with.. Maybe mrs aracauna mated with mr aracauna.   :D
Any guesses for what sex my cream leg bars are?  I know what I think but just want to see what everyone else thinks.   :)

wow, how lucky is that? I  can only see 1 male cream legbar...the paler one with the yellow spot on his head,, the others look girlies. Just watch for the yellow spot on the head...for cream legbars, that is how you tell a boy.

congratulations, pass the cigars!
