Yep, kinda what I was thinking. I also went out and looked over the orange band and am beginning to really doubt that it is a pullet. Although it is a little smaller and has smaller comb and waddles. I think it is just a week or two younger than the others. The tail feathers are just beginning to stick up and grow longer.
looks like I payed 10.00 each for roosters.
my cross meat birds will be ready for processing very soon and I am going to harvest the barred rocks too.
I think I am going to seek out a good breeder and buy older pullets from them next time. No more buying local just to try and be loyal and getting ripped off.
Thanks Darkligstorm, I appreciate the help---------
