Oh the age old question, Cockerel or Pullet? This is my first batch of chickens ever(16 of em!) Two of them are these beautiful 6 week old Amer(I)canas. I know these guys are hard to sex so early but I'm hoping someone might help in deciding what these are, the lighter copper- headed one has a slightly larger comb and sometimes jumps at the others in a rooster like fashion. One of my two 7 week old black autstralorps turned out to be a massive but sweet Cockerel who has taken command. I also have a small bunch of 2 and 3 week old lavender orpingtons that we're straight run so good chance I have a few more cockerels. Now we are deciding how big of a separate Roo coop to build out in the goat pasture!
