Hi everyone. I got 2 Light Brahmas in March, they are about 15 weeks old now. I noticed a difference right away with size and the development of comb etc and the bright red color. Does anyone know for sure if I have a roo here?

Thank you!View attachment 1066001 View attachment 1066002 View attachment 1066004

That's definitely a pair!

Thank you! I have ten total and this would be my first cockerel! I thought it was but keep second guessing!

Hi, here are a few pictures of my 11 week old Speckled Sussex. What do you think, pullet or cockerel? View attachment 1065972 View attachment 1065973 Thanks!

Hey, I got a bunch of chicks from Mcmurray, all brown egg layers, then I added one RIR rooster. They are 12 weeks now, and I figured the rooster would have a much larger comb than any of the do right now. I have two black ones that have bigger combs than all the rest, but their saddles feathers defiantly point down. This one is the only one with the roosterish look, but comb is still so small. It (he) is also very standoffish while all the others are very friendly. Please confirm that this little guy is really a guy! THANKS!

Two cockerels. Look at the feathers on the shoulders and on the back. See how those feathers look different from the rest? See how they almost seem wet? Those are male specific feathering. The saddle feathers are just starting to come in.

Bought from Tractor Supply, said it was a pullet. Approx 11 weeks old. Sweet & loving. This one falls asleep while ur holding it.

Just don't know what it is!!! Driving me bananas!!! Much much smaller than my other chickens purchased at the same time.

Was she a bantam? She looks like my Old English bantams.
