15 week old Australop- Cockerel or Pullet?

Your rooster is most likely intimidated by your other rooster so he is trying to hide his rooster traits

At 15 weeks she could be laying very soon.

This bird will not lay. He has male-specific feathering

It's definitely a cockerel

Beautiful cockerel, but what does this prove?

It's 15 weeks old just like the OP,s bird. To use for comparison. I like to research things and searched for photos of 15 week old Australorps. I do see a difference between the two do you?

Sure, the one is more mature than the other. Still both cockerels though

Cockerel. I’m not sure why anyone would say pullet. They make good boys usually if you can keep him.
