Hi everyone,
I have one chicken that I'd like your opinions on regarding gender. I'm unsure of its age (I collected what were supposed to be one month old chicks, but this looks 3+ months to me). It only has one tail feather - kinda "Charlie Brown-esque" but thats probably because of pecking etc whilst at the breeders (not the best place, i can tell you, but choice is very limited here in Kenya). I should say that its a mix breed also.
I returned 5 out of the 10 chickens i got as they were cockerels, but this one has me flummoxed (not difficult, i know). I have another male that is smaller but has definitive saddle feathers and this adds to my confusion.
Here goes!
Many thanks advance for any responses.
Cheers
