Black Sumatras Owners!!

Not familiar with the Sumatra breed. Took me 4 months to identify Stitches breed. Stitch is 5 months old but I can't figure out if a puller or roo. I didn't order stitch, came as an extra chick

I'm inclined to say you have a roo. The tail feathers look like they are starting to form that beautiful distinct plume. :thumbsup
Another clue, is he came as an extra. Any Sumatra , even hatchery stock are prized possessions. Pullets are usually priced kind of high, and availability tends to be somewhat limited. (or you have to order well in advance)
I wonder what kind of chicken you would get if crossed with a Ayam Cemani, or Swart hona hen.????
WISHING YOU BEST.:highfive:
 
@countrygirl76 I think you have a pullet. The tail is kinda hard to see but the comb is female. At 5 months old you would see a comb on the rooster and the pullet doesn't have one. Very pretty bird. I have both roosters and hen sumatras and see the difference in the heads.
