This is about a 2 month old Spangled Russian Orloff, I got 2, they were supposed to be pullets, but this one is quite a bit larger, his hackle feathers look roo to me, he has big legs/thighs and just carries himself like a roo. If he is a roo, anybody have experience with these guys? the last accidental roo I got turned out to be a game roo :-O OMG was he mean!!! had to rehome him. I hope that's not the case with this one.








Here you can see the beginning of his comb, it's bigger and redder than the other pullet.

 
Wow, really? even with the pointy hackle feathers? Well that would be great, I hope you're right!! thanks for the input.
 
I'm not seeing pointy hackle feathers, and the bird's too young for sex feathers anyway. Those don't come in until around 3-4 months as a rule.
