#2 really looks like a hen to me. Not sure about #1, but only because his/her face is in shadow. How old are they?

Both look like pullets to me Colleen. I see not saddle or hackle feathers and combs are very small.

Don't hold me to it!! LOL :hide:

Both look like girls to me as well. Any updated pics of the first three chicks? Should be a little easier to guess now that they're a week older :)

Haha. I should have stated that these are 2 of the first three pics I posted. (Instead of 2 more) They are in reverse order though
The 1st original pic is now the chick in the 2nd pic. And the other is well the other chick
Will post pic of the white/red chick later.
Amazing ing how much they change
Thanks
