Salmon favorelle pullet or roo?

[karint]

Is this pretty salmon favorelle a pullet or too? 2.5 months. Buying from a breeder and she said hen and I’m pretty sure she knows her breeds but color seems not right for a hen so I’m confused.

She’s a pullet, but that’s not good coloring at all for a salmon faverolles. She also doesn’t have the beard which would be very obvious at this age if she were to have one! She’s a cute chicken but not a Faverolles, so if that’s what you are looking for then I’d pass!
This is my 2 month old hatchery faverolles and she already has a big beard! Less well bred faverolles like my hatchery girl have black spots, but definitely not that much black and patchiness in the brown! A show quality one would have zero black spots and dark coloring on the cream feathers.

That’s what I’m worried about thanks.

she could be a mix. the lack of feathers on feet, the black and the lack of fluffy face makes me think a mix

She’s beautiful. That’s what I want so I’m going to pass on this one.

Don't faverolles have feathered feet?

I’d pass in part bc only males should have black…but in my experience, the comb and wattles would be obvious too (on a male) but can’t see anything here. But, if it were female, it has terrible coloring, so not s good SF from a breeder. Either way, I’d pass
