I'm calling on everyones opinion of the sex of this chick, thanks for your help.

That's a hard, but VERY CUTE one! I'll guess boy?!?!?!?!?!

I thought so too Maesie! I have had a member of the forum waiting for ages for a tame green boy, so I was hoping this is the one!

My guess would be hen but I would normally wait about another week before I can tell for sure. It has the pale colour of a hen but the evenness of colour of a cock. Another few days and you should be able to tell...be patient

I always thought if they had a pinky bulbous looking cere they were boys?

It looks like I'm sqeezing the life out of him, but I can assure I'm not, he just has a very full crop!!

I am not real sure. I say a hen too, but Kaz is the expert with the young ones

Could be a hen

I'm going with Hen at the moment, But if you could get a side on view ?

How old is it

Its roughly 3 weeks old Neat, can take some more pics without a flash tomorrow with side on view.

Tch Tch Jenene You had the flash on again and asked for cere diagnosis ?? Tch Tch

I know Kaz,sorry 'bout that! I completely forgot - please forgive me, pleeeaaase???

Smack smack smack

 

I had a "blonde" moment there Kaz. That's my excuse anyway

Poor little chick looks like you are strangling it Jenene

 

 

Squeeze any tighter and you may make the cere turn blue

Like when you POP the head off a dandelion flower

Great idea KAZ. Not just you Jenene. When I posted about my opalines, I wasn't sure where to put it, and they didn't really have a 'spot' up until NOW
