I posted on here about three weeks ago when I brought home two little chickies. Pacey and Joey are almost a month old now. Wow, how time flies and how quickly they grow!
In the very beginning, Pacey was a tad bit bigger then Joey. Pacey has also been ahead in development - growing in tail, feathers, etc. Pacey is the more affectionate of the two and loves to fly up on my shoulder and nest, rather then enjoy freedom from the cage.
Even though Joey is behind in developing, he/she is now bigger then Pacey. Joey's legs have also gotten quite thicker then Pacey's, and three days ago, we noticed that Joey is also growing in a 'comb' (little bumps are getting bigger). Pacey has a bit of baldness where a comb should be, but does not have any bumps what-so-ever.
So my question is, is there any way to tell whether they are male/female at this age? You guys were right, I am absolutely in love with these little guys.
