    Got some pictures of them at 5 weeks for comparison to the 13 and 11 weeks pictures. Both are 15 weeks but its quite possible they came from different hens, in fact it's highly likely hence the difference in tail feathering and waddle comb however I feel like it's so different that one is a...

    Okay so I managed to get wing primary feather shots and a few shots of the base of his tail feather where I think he is getting some barring in.. it a very messy though so idk. The hen of the same age has nearly all white feathers on her wings and tail and back. Also is a pic of his ever so red...

    Yea it's perfectly okay to change your mind xD I've done it a hundred or so Times with this one and my RIR. I was wondering if it's possible for the tail feathers to start growing in barred patterns because at the base of a few new ones.. they are barred but kinda messy like.

    Okay so as requested I tried taking new pictures this morning. I wanted to show his primary flight feathers in comparison to the hen but failed.. I got a updated shot of his wattle/comb and a reoccurring shot of his tail feather and back feathers with the hen. His barring down his neck has...

    11 weeks in picture. 13 weeks today. Comb wattles are still same size on the pullet Although the one with red is still growing more and redder. I have read though that based on the tail feather they may both be pullets.. which perplexed me again since the rooster in question has far longer...
