All hens on deck?

[DIMBY]

Hi, all, haven't posted in a long time, but I always depend on the "rooster experts" among you since I'm not the best at ID'ing them. Here is a pix of three of my new ones, about 12 weeks old. Any roos here?

All pullets!

Thank you! I have had checkered luck with my new groups, so to speak, seems like about 80% of them I get a roo or two despite assurances...and they are very difficult to rehome (and stressful!).

I understand... I have 40 chicks right now (cause I'm crazy) and I think I have about 5 "surprise" cockerels...luckily I can keep them where I live. Glad this batch worked out for you!

Yup all pullets. Pretty ladies! I feel like some Orp pullets have deceptively large combs (thinking of the girl in the foreground). I have an Orp/Australorp/EE mix that I could have swore was a cockerel up until about a week ago, but now I'm starting to think pullet just because her comb isn't growing any faster or larger than it was at three weeks, with no pinking or wattles.

Similar to you I have 21 “pullets” at the moment, 1 of which I’m 99% sure is a roo and 2 others that are probably roos as well.

No cockerels....all pullets...but word play in thread title gave me a good chuckle.
