How can you tell? We are so sad b/c we will have to put him on Craigs List- we live in the city. This one was my son's chicken so he is NOT happy. So much for our blue eggs...
look at the pretty green sheen on those tail feathers, screams roo!! very nice looking bird. I would do like the others and wait for an egg or a crow before rehoming.
Yes, this is a roo. So sorry for your son. I know only because of the beautiful feathers and red comb. My EE girls' are 22 weeks and still aren't that red. Handsome Handsome boy, though.
