Are these ladies really dudes?

[budda]

Help me with these two....this barred rock is one of the friendliest in the group....but...i am wondering if she is having idenity crisis issues.

And this one is just a monster compared to her litter mates. This one is easily half again as big as her sister who is also a Welsummer. She keeps her tail fanned out most of the time but there is no real redness in her comb. Kinda wondering about this one too. I got these as sexed pullets but am not to sure.

Anyone have any guesses???

My guesses are the BR is a pullet and the second one is a cockerel.

Looks like pullets to me. The brown one is 100% a pullet, I can assure you of that. I have never seen hennie-feathering in the Welsummer breed, and only if he were a hennie would I be wrong.

I agree. Both are girls.

They are both pullets.

Welsummer cockerels look like this (at 6 weeks):

Only pullets get the salmon colored chests:

You have a pocket full of hennie pennies

Agreed. I'd say hens.

Thanks for the responses. I am going to get two more soon as well. Decided to add a blue maran and splash to the hen house
