I have two 16 week old Light Sussex Chickens, I think they both are roosters, one has a super large comb, one has a much smaller comb, none have yet crowed, and none have yet shown interest in other hens (mounting), but as I am unsure please see images below.

I have 2 Lavender Sussex Chickens, one is 19 Weeks Old and one is 16 weeks old. I believe the older one is a rooster, the wattles are red but the comb is still a pinkish colour, the younger chicken still has pinkish wattles and comb. Please see images below.

I have one 19 Week old Barred Rock, which I think is Rooster as it has arching tail feathers, but still has small comb, shouldn't roos at this age have a larger comb? Please see images.
I also have two 16 week old Barred Rocks, to which I have no clue whether they are male or female, I have...
Hi guys!
I have a blue australorp... he/she has always been bigger than the rest. Even my other roos.
It hasn't crowed or anything yet but my other roos have.
I figure it is a roo because the tail feathers have got longer.

This is Hermoine. I traded one of my baby roos for this one when she was about 8 weeks old. I was told she was a hen. She is now approximately 20 weeks old and to me she is looking more like a roo. What do you think? I have never had a cochin before so I'm not too familiar. I do have a cochin...

I just recently bought a silkie pullet yesterday but I’m not sure if she really is a pullet or if it might be cockerel. I’m also wondering around what age she might be?
Hi, we have two Barred Rock chicks, approximately 5 1/2 weeks old, and we are afraid we've been "roo-ed" again :( The one on the right has a much bigger comb and visible wattle than the other one. We have never had this breed before. Would love to hear opinions of the experts. TIA!
These are the two Pekin girls we got to replace our previous girl who turned out to be a boy.
They're around 17 weeks old now. The lavender one, Tiny Tornado, was very sick when she came. She had a respiratory disease which the vet treated with antibiotics. Then, as she got better, her comb and...
