    4 week old Australorp - male or female?

    Hello everyone! First time posting, long time scroller. We have a very sweet 4 week old Australorp (possible mix). Wondering if anyone with more experience can guess whether Wilma is actually a Willy? She has developed very big legs and wing and tail feathers very quickly, and now has a pink...

    Pullet or Cockerel

    Its ages is an est. of ten weeks. Is it a Plymouth Barred Rock? Is it a cockerel? Do barred rock cockerels grow spurs? If it is a cockerel, should I remove it ASAP? I have a mixed breed flock with one other PBR and about to fully merge this one into my existing flock of 6. The one on the box is...

    Gender please?

    Hello! My friend incubated eggs from her chickens and I got these 5 from her. They are now going on 13 weeks old. Can anyone tell me if these are cockerals or pullets. Thank you!

    RIR gender

    Back in April I bought 9 pullets from the Tractor Supply Store. But the more they grow I think I have 6 cockerels and 3 pullets. What do you guys think?

    5 week old chicks; help identifying sex please?

    Hello fellow backyard chicken keepers! I have my first flock, just about 5 weeks old (the Easter Egger is a week older). I got the chicks from a homestead that claimed they were all pullets, but I suspect that I have one, possibly two (or more??) cockerels amongst my six chicks. I would love to...

    6 week Silver Laced Barnevelder gender poll

    This beautiful chick is definitely either head hen or a roo. She's an amazing snuggler but she is also aggressive. Essentially, when you pick her up you have a 50/50 shot on whether or not she chooses violence or love

    Help! Cockeral or Hens?

    Hi this is my first time posting. The last couple of days by bigger barred rock has started to crow, so definitely must be a male, but I got a second chick at the same time and I just want to get some confirmation as to if they are both males.... they should be about 12-14weeks old.

    Pullet vs Cockerel

    My gut/pics are telling me cockerel but for the sake of my family loving this one I’m hoping it’s a she! No other barreds to compare in our flock. 4-5 weeks with one of my 5-6 week buffys and an australorp 4-5 weeks. Waddles developing, comb VERY pale pink 3-4 weeks old

    Pullet or Cockerel??

    I’ve attached below a picture of one of our Blue Australorps. We’re stumped on weather it is a pullet or cockerel. The other 3 that we got with this one ended up being Cockerals and have crowed but this one is yet to do so. It is currently 13 weeks old. Any ideas on what it might be? Thanks! :)

    Is my 16 week old EE a Rooster or a Pullet?

    I bought 4 EE “pullets” almost 16 weeks ago, and two have turned out to be Roosters… I was pretty sure this sweetie was a Pullet, but now I’m not sure. The tail feathers are metallic green, but not the same as the boys, there isn’t any rust color in the wings, and the comb (even though red)...

    Pullet or cockerel help, please! I just got a beautiful EE pullet who’s starting to look a bit manly...

    I think my new EE is about 10 weeks (just got her 3 days ago), and yesterday I started to notice long tail feathers and how upright she stands. We named her Phyllis Diller (since she’s quite the character and so pretty!) and I’m really hoping she’s not a Phil because roosters are illegal where I...

    Pullet or Roo???

    Got these sweethearts today!!! Just curious as to their gender. We have 5 sapphire gems and I think the last one is a black australorp. Any thoughts as to whether I have any Roos? How many pullets?
  14. chickenholdthewaffles

    Yoohoo! I think my favorite pullet is a roo.

    I bought 2 blue australorp chicks from a pullet bin. Was taking photos of them today and realized one of them has a significantly larger comb and wattles are already coming in. I think it's a roo. I've never had a rooster before. Can yall confirm, and also provide any advice that might be...

    6 wk cockerel???

    I know I’ve posted before about this chicken but I swear it’s a cockerel. The attitude, the size and the color of the comb and wattle makes me think cockerel but I am new to being a chicken owner so what the heck do I know lol All my other chickens have pale combs and wattles. None of them are...

    Is This Another Cockerel???!!!

    Hi all! We started off with a flock of 8 and 1 was definitely a cockerel and 2 in question. One is a buff brahma bantam and has a red comb...the farmer we got them from thinks he’s a boy. The second one is a blue australorp and the farmer thinks she’s a girl. I think the blue lorp is a...

    Pullets or Roos? 5 weeks old

    These babies are 5 weeks old. I have one of each- Leghorn, Rhode Island Red, ameraucana (or EE??), barred rock Plymouth, and what they called a midnight majesty Maran?

    Cockerel or Pullet?

    Hei Hei (white) is older so should be easier to guess, Hedwig (brown) is a few weeks younger so might be a little harder. Sexing silkies is new to me and difficult when they’re young from what I hear but I’m pretty sure I have 3 cockerels including Hei Hei and hedwig (if a male) and 4 pullets

    cockerel or Pullet, Olive egger from welsummer mom x cream legbar dad:

    Hey guys. Boy or girl? Last weekend, I picked up what I was told was a 6-7 week old F1 Olive Egger (& a French Cuccoo Marans pullet!) The hen was a Welsummer and the Rooster was a Cream Legbar. It was the last and only one left at the farm, so I had nothing to compare it to in order to judge...
