I have recently bought 1 light and 1 speckled Sussex around 9 weeks old. Any guesses if they are pullets or cockerels?
Only had ISA’s prior so never had to worry, was trying just to wait and see but my curiosity is getting the better of me!
Sorry if they aren’t the best pics, they are so darn fast 😂

I’m pretty sure you’ve got all pullets here. My question though is about the Sussex tail feathers. Mine is 12 weeks and looks the same, like they feel out or got pulled out and are just coming back in. Is this something specific to Sussex breed?

IDK, my SS pullets' tails haven't ever looked like that before.
