Cull or keep

[slmwatts]

Trying to decide if I’m in denial. I hatched 28 eggs on March 27 and now I’ve got to cull out the roosters. I’ve already culled 7 that I was sure about. I’ve got 8 more, but I’m thinking 2 might possibly be pullets. In the photos, the questionables are the mostly white one with brown, and the black-and-white barred one. What’s the verdict?

Males!

Yep, those are frypan specials. Notice the skinny feathers drooping off the lower back area - saddle feathers - and the tail feathers of all uneven and various shapes and sizes.

Sorry they look like pullets to me- my barred rock and Dominque look the same. Don’t want to wait til they crow? FYI I was told it was a rooster too- and it wasn’t

Nope. 100% roos.
