    Cockerel or Pullet

    This is supposed to be a Blue Andalusian Pullet, but for a while now, I've been suspecting not only that she's not a Pure BA, but that she's a he. She's about 29 weeks old and much smaller than my EE Rooster, but I realize that the size may just be indicative of the breed. Any ideas?
