Regardless of its sex, that is one beautiful bird!

Thank you, I sure think so!

Updated pics from this morning. Don't mind the fact that someone just pooped on her/his back!

Every time I see more update pics, I'm leaning more heavily towards cockerel. I'm thinking that his tail is just slower to develop than his face and neck, which is not uncommon, but only time will tell for sure.

It’s a cockerel. You can see point hackle feathers in the first photo, and the droopy saddle feathers coming in above the tail.

Just wanted to update that there still hasn't been a crow or egg. Just a beautiful mystery chicken lol.

What a beautiful bird!
I will vote cockeral, but not putting any money on it. A bit of a late bloomer if jt is...

 

[Table4Six]

Do you have any recent update pics, @tanyabee?

 

[tanyabee]

This was from tonight. Not the best pic. Still no crow and no eggs from any of my pullets yet

 

[Chick-N-Fun]

I am almost certain that you have a handsome cockerel on your hands!
