Rooster vs hen Brahma chicken

[mmcburney3]

Okay so I was sold these two Brahma "pullets" but when I got them they had no tail feathers. Well I just started paying attention recently and noticed they look like roos. These are also the first Brahma chickens I have owned so I'm on the fence. Anyways I'm rehoming them if they are roos but would like a second opinion even though I think I know lol I'm just hopeful I'm wrong

Unfortunately, both are cockerels. Where did you get them from and how old were they when you bought them?

Seems like someone dumped their unwanted males on you.

Can you contact them?

They were about 3 months when I got them from a local breeder. They had next to no tail feathers in so I couldn't tell based off that and just noticed after I saw one attempting to mount my hen that their feathers looked very rooish. I contacted the breeder and they ignored me.

Yes, sadly some people love to take advantage of fellow chicken keepers.

Next time you want to buy birds, post a few pictures of them prior to purchasing and we will try to help you determine if they really are what the sellers claims them to be.
