Are these male saddle feathers?

[PurplePlum]

Yes, they do.
All chicks get 'rounded' saddle feathers when they first come in, and then later at around 10 to 12 weeks the males get new pointed ones.

. I was hoping that the others were “safe” because I can’t keep roosters, but I guess back to waiting.

Male 'pointed' saddle feathers only come in at around 10 to 12 weeks.
So it is still too early to tell by that method.
However, going by his reddish colouring, and comb size, I should say the one on the left is a cockerel.
The one on the right I am inclined to pullet.

That darn chick hit every “Is this a cockerel?” mark. I’m more sure he’s a he than the hatchery is sure they correctly sexed “her”….but I’m still going to wait until I’m 10000%.

It's a cockerel, but not because of the male feathers

Here’s a few more photos of him looking very rooster-ish. View attachment 3490958View attachment 3490960View attachment 3490962

He is, without a doubt, a cockerel.

Well , these most definitely have to be the male saddle feathers. They’re also very helpfully a different color . I keep checking all the other’s backs but so far only one male

Yup, you're correct. It's a cockerel
