8 week Delaware

[autumn2020]

Hi! I hope y'all can help me determine if this is a rooster. She's been larger than my others from the day I brought them home. Her coloring is a little different than my other Delaware and she's nearly double the size (although the other Delaware is the smallest chick I have) I suspect she may actually be a he but I thought you guys may know better than me. What do you think? Hen or rooster?

Cockerel

Agree with @featheredplanets. Beautiful! I am hoping out of my next batch one will be a roo! I love the personalities and hope to breed them.

I have a 9 week old Delaware that looks like this. I’m leaning towards Cockerel for both. I wish I could keep mine if he starts crowing then I’ll have to let him go. Hoping they both surprise us and lay eggs instead!

The general consensus seems to be cockerel and I believe that it probably is as well, but I’m really just commenting to say I absolutely love that last picture!
