Thank you!Yes, it looks like a hen.
Oh no, I knew for sure this one was a pullet. She’s small framed and has small legs and feathered right along with my other pullet for the first weeks. Everything has seemed pullet to me.I believe that's a cockerel because of the coloring. Males have the white tip and black bar at the end of each feather.
This is what I found when I searched as I was also trying to sex my SS chicks.Oh no, I knew for sure this one was a pullet. She’s small framed and has small legs and feathered right along with my other pullet for the first weeks. Everything has seemed pullet to me.
Thank you for the helpful information. I already have one confirmed cockerel out of 3 “pullets” this year, so I’ll wait this one out fingers crossed it turns out to be a pullet.This is what I found when I searched as I was also trying to sex my SS chicks.
"Their tails are brown and black with white on the ends, while their beaks are brownish-pink. Male Speckled Sussex chickens have a dark mahogany head, neck, and saddle with the tip of almost every feather adorned with white and a black bar that lies between the white tip and the remainder of the feather."
That’s not true. Speckled Sussex males and females have the same pattern. There is no difference.I believe that's a cockerel because of the coloring. Males have the white tip and black bar at the end of each feather.
