yep, He is a cockerel.

Yes,definitely a cockerel. I think it look like an EE Welsummer mix.

The 2 chipmunk ones look like they are Speckled Sussex. Their legs/feet look to be pink not yellow like a Welsummer.

Glad I have this post to look back on. LOL my SS are at it again with their Molting in April. This time I just found it odd because they molted in Sept/Oct too. I guess they just want to have pretty feathers.

Maybe they have a little Game Bird mixed in them. Some GBs look like Welsummer and Brown Leghorn. It could be the lighting but they look a bit too dark to be Wellies. I am leaning more toward a Brown Leghorn or a mix and that they are still too young for their true earlobe color to be seen.

looks like a cockerel. This is the site I used to help me identify my EE it has lots of photos of different colored EE and their combs. http://www.homegrowngourmet.org/how-to-know-before-they-crow-gender-identification-in-young-chickens/

They are 2 years old and 3(in July) years old. That's why I don't get it. I have checked them for mites there are not any.

Is anyone else having issues with their hens having a late Spring molt? I have 5 SS and 2 Wellies. ALL 5 of my SS molted in Sept/Oct as did one of my Wellies. My other Wellie started her molt in late Feb early March which is what she did last year too. They last 2 weeks I have noticed feathers...

Yep, SS Cockerel

Your chipmunk looks like an EE it has a pea comb.

cockerel

The chipmunk one could be an EE they don't always have fluffy cheeks. What kind of comb does it have? Single comb yellow feet could be a Welsummer, single comb pink feet could be a Speckled Sussex.

That's a cockerel

All 7 of my hens have decided they dont need to lay anymore. I was getting at least 1 egg a day up til the 27th of Jan and then they stopped. I noticed that one of my Wellies is doing a minor spring molt for some reason. She is the same one that did a Spring molt last year too. I am thinking...

My girls are slowing in their old age but all are healthy and happy. My 5 SS are on their 3rd winter this year, they will be 3 in July. My 2 Wellies are on their second winter and will be 2 in April. My egg totals are 2012- (with 5 pullet for the first 10 months of the year) 712 eggs 2013-...

We planted some kale right next to our run. The chickens got the stuff right that poked in or that they pulled in and we got the other stuff. That worked out great. I am going to do it again this year too. It also acted as shade for them too. It grew to be 4+foot tall. I am So excited for Spring...

If you find a local feed store you can ask them about when they will be getting their chicks in. I know there is a Wilco in Gig Harbor but that's a bit of a drive from you. We have had good luck with our meat birds from them(at the Kelso Wilco). That is where I will be getting our next batch of...

^^^^This is what I was going to say too.

Have you figured out if your BO is a pullet or a cockerel yet?
