Hello! I have posted about my chick “Sunny/Sonny” before. The consensus has been that he is a male (Sonny). But now he is 17 weeks old and has never crowed, and I’m starting to wonder again. He is golden buff x welsummer. What do you all think?
Yes - dad is golden buff and mom is wellsummer. The only other option would be full GB, because all of my other hens are GB. And that clearly isn't the case given those feathers.
Yes I thought the iridescent tail feathers were a give away. I'm just confused by the white feathers. None of my golden buffs had that... and I'm not familiar with the Wellsummer breed as chicks.
I have been assuming that this 11-week old Wellsummer-Golden Buff cross is a cockerel, but he hasn't crowed once, and I thought by now that would be the final word on things. Does anyone think it may be a pullet? attaching photos to show him (?) from a few different angles.
