Yay!!! Good to know because in these past 2 weeks she's gone from wanting nothing to do with me to being a snuggley lap chicken. It would be hard to find out she's a cockerel now that we've bonded a bit.
Thank you all for the reassurance! It means so much that they all seem to be pullets because I have a small backyard flock in a city with a rooster restriction. I can't buy fewer than 3 chicks but can't go over a certain amount in my total flock, so it gets complicated when the 3 I order aren't...
That's great to hear! So even the Buff Orpington doesn't show signs of being a cockerel? It's normal to have pinkish wattles and earlobes at this stage for a pullet?
Hi! I ordered 3 pullets from Meyer and now that they are nearing the 5 week mark, I wanted to see if you guys still think they seem like pullets. The only one I get "roo vibes" from is the Buff Orpington, who is pretty independent, strays from the group, will attempt to approach the big hens...
