Another "is this a roo question? "

[tryingtohaveitall]

One of our SLW has a redder, bigger combs than the others. I'm becoming suspicious that she is a he. We ordered all pullets, but I realize mistakes can happen.

This is the best pic I have of him/her so far.

I believe that is a cockerel.

I'd have to agree - he looks rooish. Do the other chicks have more feathers on their backs then this chick? I noticed w/ my wyandottes that the cockerels feather out slower then the pullets.

He looks exactly like my SLW roo.

I'm gonna have to say roo as well. Though, to be honest, I have zero experience with this breed. The tail feathers seem to be sticking straight up, and his comb does seem to be pretty pink there.
