Re: Little is a mom again
So Little hatched 5 babies. 2 typical girl markings...one typical boy and 2 that look like this:
I've seen blonde chicks from them before (Happy was one) but they don't typically have back markings. I'm going to assume these are boys but thoughts?

Re: Little is a mom again
I'm a relative newbie to gender determination - definitely no expert - but I do like to try to figure it out whenever there's a "what am I?", so my guess is the one in the last picture is male, going by colouring and pattern being lighter and with slightly blurred demarcation lines. I don't see anything on the first one yet that gives me any clues, though.
P.S. Little is very cute!

Re: Little is a mom again
The good thing about these guys is I won't have to wait long to find out! I will go out one morning and BOOM there's Combs and wattles everywhere lol.
I'm amazed watching these tiny ones. They are the smartest chicks I've ever seen. I don't know if that's a game bird thing or a banty thing or what.
