I'm guessing roo.

10-11 weeks you say? Then I say it's definitely a rooster.

 

[WingingIt]

If it's 10 weeks, I'd say roo, too.

 

[ohbella]

WOW really?!
since iam totally new at this, why would you say a roo?

here's some more pictures including one with her nest mate... is that one also a roo? the brownish one...

Both roos.Sorry

Comb development is too big/red at that age for a hen. And I bet if you waited a few more weeks then you would start to see pointed saddle and hackle feathers.

AHH ok i get it.
they may actually be a bit younger, so that would confirm even more both roos.
thank you so much!
these aren't my birds, i was planning on buying the one, thinking it was a pullet.

bummer that its not, was looking forward to "cammo" eggs lol

Rooster, and my is he a beauty! You can still get camo eggs. . . With the right hen to cross with him.
