roo hen sex

We got a few Easter egger pullets from TS about 3 weeks ago, and normally I would say that’s way too early to sex a chick but what do you guys think? This one’s comb and waddles are very bright, and it’s comb is pretty wide though very flat.

I received 3 hatchery chicks in October that were supposed to be female- a Delaware, a Black Jersey Giant and an Easter Egger. They are now 16 weeks old and I have gnawing suspicions that my Eater Egger is a cockerel, I would appreciate your input. I will attach a recent photo. I

This is Chives, an Easter Egger. She is 17 weeks old now. I purchased her from Rural King at 5 days old. They told me the hatchery sexes them and has an 85-90% accuracy rate. I do not know the hatchery they use. I am in central Tennessee, about an hour and a half west of Nashville. When I...

6 week old Whiting True Blue. This is my only egg that hatched that I bought from someone with an exotic eggs. I will be a little bummed if its a Rooster, but the comb is making me think it is.

Hatched September 2nd almost 8 weeks old. Very small and cute. Keeping regardless of sex.

I tried taking photos of comb and feathers. This one is more red than the other Easter Egger. The first three photos are the one in question. The 4th photo is of the other Easter Egger we brought home the same time. ALSO, the 5th picture - what type is she. tufts and beard but legs more greenish...

All taken at 5 weeks. I have a feeling it’s a roo but leghorn females can also have huge combs so I don’t know if I can just go by that trait. Although I’m 90% sure it’s a roo. :(

One of my three blue ameraucanas has a comb coming in that looks a little bit fleshier than the others. Not sure if she might be a he or not - I have heard ameraucanas are tricky to sex at only 11 weeks. In every picture she/he is the one closest to the camera. Any educated guesses? Any advice...

I have 5 chicks and I wanted some opinions on what sex they are. I know for sure that the 5th is a roo and I think that their all roos but I'm not 100% sure about everyone. The first 2 pics are the parents and the rest are the chicks, I put numbers in the photos so that their easier to refer to.

Hi there! In April 2021 I bought two Barred Rock ‘pullets’, to add to my flock. Four months later, my two Barred Rock look a bit different from each other. One has a small pink comb, and the other’s wattles, comb, and overall face is completely developed and red! This morning, I saw my more...

Hey all, I have a 7 week old CM from Ideal that was supposed to be a pullet… I’m having my doubts but would love opinions, as I’m holding out hope that it’s just an early bloomer. Bonus points it you can tell me WHY you feel it is pullet or cockerel so I can learn.. up until last week I had no...

I have three porcelain D'uccle chicks and I cant for the life of me tell whos a roo or hen. All three are 8 weeks old. when they first started feathering I thought the first two (pink, blue) were hens and the last one (orange) was a roo but the older they get the harder it is to tell.

Bought as a”pullet” was professionally sexed as a young bird but al I can see are saddle feathers... no eggs and no crowing yet.... am returning to breeder but I’d love anyone’s opinion as to whether there was any chance it could be a pullet as if it is I’d love to keep it... but can’t keep...

Looking forward to all tips from seasoned living poultry lovers! Thank you for including me. 🐓🐤🐣🐥🦋🐓🌼 First question. Can a 9/10 week old roo fertilize eggs; if you know what I mean? Balshazar got into the Hen house during the middle of the night. I’m wondering if Shirley, Grace or Mercy have...

Hello! I have 3 Black Australorp pullets — or so I think. They’re just about 7 weeks old. One may be moonlighting as a roo. It’s comb and wattle are redder than the other two and this morning I swear I heard an attempt at a crow. Then again...maybe it was just clearing its throat! :confused...

1 Turken, 2 Starlight Green Eggers, 3 Dominiques around 4 weeks of age. I posted these pics on a couple of Facebook Groups, as well. My husband and I are not allowed roo's where we live.

I am hoping some of you may be able to help me with a Silkie question. Basically I started with 3 silkies and a pilkie, 13 weeks old and in the knowledge that 1 was looking like a possible roo. They settled in well, the suspected roo started crowing and everything was fine. (No eggs yet). Then...

Roo or pullet? This little has me stumped!
