Cockerel or Pullet???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree, I would be pretty sure of that one being a cockerel.

If you want, show pictures of the other ones?

He may show other signs soon, like trying to crow.. but most roosters don't try until much older...

Okay. Thanks

I haven't seen any different behavior in the cockerel, but I DO see him sometimes having a tiny little squabble with, what I think, is the other cockerel. I think that they're just seeing who's boss though.

Boys do tend to do that more often than girls. So if there's some that like to do that pretty often- they also do it as play- bumping chests.

Hi Kev

Thanks and here are some pics (first one is just him) of him compared to a girl. I think that I have another cockerel, so I'll try to post some pics later...he was getting too scared when I tried to take him out of the brooder, so i figured I'd try again later.

Where did you get these? Hatchery or a private/backyard breeder?
