Pullet?

I have spent the last 4 months thinking this was a cockerel. H/er comb was the 2nd to come in and turn pink, but never went to red. Acting more pulletish by the day.

Four of her siblings are showing off their boy feathers and being obnoxious teenagers.

Yes, pullet!

That means I got two girls out of six! Following up on 1 out of 8 and 1 out of 6. My ratios are a little skewed.

Wow!!! Those are some crazy numbers!

I think I may have identified part of the problem. I've been trying to get my breeds mixed for my project, and EVERY chick from the ranger crosses has been male. Accounting for that brings the ratios down closer to 3 or 4 to 1. Still high, but manageable.
