Roo or Hen?

[heidicmcewen]

Is my 8 week old Silver Laced Wyandotte a Roo or Hen ?Or still too early to tell? I have 2 Wyandotte’s and this one is larger and the comb is more pink.

Looks like a hen to me!

Wyandotte s can be tricky since both sexes redden early. It might be too early

I hope so, I only questioned it since her comb is more red than the other one.

Thanks! I am really hoping none of my ladies turn into Roos. We are 1st time chicken owners.

Yes, roosters aren't for first timers but I don't regret any of mine.

Unfortunately we can’t have roosters where we live only hens. Otherwise I would be fine having a rooster. I am only 8 weeks in and already so attached to these chickens!

Right now nothing screams cockerel - good luck.

Not to derail, but I don't think an all hen flock would've prepared for a boy.
