I have read other posts about the GLW breeds, saying they are easy to sex; hoping someone with experience can help us tell if our ‘Winnie’ is a boy or girl. 9 weeks old. From what I’ve read here, it’s looking like we have a rooster, but this is our first experience with chickens. I know we’ll be able to tell in as little as a couple/few weeks but we’re anxious if there is any hope of ‘her’ being a hen!

Update:
Winnie is now 12.5 weeks. Still no crowing but we are starting to see some pointy saddle feathers.

Oh BOY: Winnie’s first crow was this week, at 15 weeks old.
