Help with sexing Orpington chicks.
« on: August 02, 2011, 21:42 »
These chicks are 5 1/2 weeks old and although I am fully aware that sexing them is difficult until later on, I thought it would be nice to have a rough idea on who's who.

My little vultures (jubilee orps)-




Emu the gold laced orp-


And my (un)buff orp, so pretty! -

Id put my money on the first Jubilee being a cockerel and maybe the buff as well (but they are a nightmare to sex until they crow I find! LOL)

I have a gut feeling that the third Jubilee may be the only girl out of this lot but am unsure as this is my first time raising chicks.
