yes I am going to have to rehome him. :( He is so pretty too! But when we started out my husband said no roosters and I agreed. Then the sweetest one and the chick he picked to name turned out to be a cockerel so he said we would "try" and see how loud he was, and I said we would try and...

Just an update for anyone searching this type of thing (like I did but didn't find updates. LOL). It is confirmed cockerel. I caught him crowing today. I still don't see any saddle feathers coming in yet, Hackle feathers are still pretty rounded but slightly pointy. he has maybe 2...

that is what I figured you meant. :) I still don't see pointy ones but I will take your word for it since I am very un-experienced when it comes to that. :) so they may be there and I am missing them. Sure in a week or two I will notice them.

ok. I knew where they should be but where mysterychicken said they saw them and said cockerel because of that I thought she meant she saw pointy ones. That is what I meant by where did she see them. I don't see any pointy ones yet and heard most times they don't come out till 12-14 weeks...

where do you see the saddles? I am not seeing any yet and keep looking. I am trying to learn so I can figure this out. My cochin was easy to figure out. besides his comb and waddles that came out at 4 weeks HUGE, he also stands more erect and walks very roo like, but he is more docile and...

Close up pics of the comb. And some other angles. 9.5-10 weeks

Pictures of tail and side view from 9 weeks old

A couple side angles from today

That is what I thought. But read a lot of times EE roos have uneven markings too. Dolphins seem even so was hoping even with the comb maybe there was a chance it was a pullet. Lol

Is it the comb or other things too?

Well crap. That means 2 out of my 10. It is so pretty too.

Updated pics. 8 weeks old. The EE not the light Brahma

She/He is keeping me guessing. comb is still pinkish but still no waddles around a week after I noticed the comb changing color......... So hopefully that is a good sign!

I noticed the top of her comb is turning a bit pink. But she was one of the first ones with tail feathers
