Are these saddle feathers

[Fletty]

I’m new to chickens this year and I have a questionable buff Orpington that some of you thought was looking roo-ish. Can someone tell me in these are saddle feathers coming in? She is almost 10 weeks. She also has two tail feathers with brown lacing. I feel like I never guess right on the gender posts so I obviously I have no idea what I’m looking for.

She kinda looks like a hen to me. Can I see a pic of her feet?

Also if it matters she is extremely friendly. She has been rejected by older flock and I had rehome the other half of her pair as a roo. She is very attached to us. She spends a lot of time inside with us.

Looks like a pullet.

Yep, looks like a hen. I may be wrong but that's my best guess!

Was the roo mean to her?

That is a pullet. Those are not saddle feathers.

Hens and roosters both have saddle feathers. A roo's saddle feathers are pointer and a hen's are more rounded.

No I have 3 16 week old pullets that bully her. That’s why her beak is all scabbed. I thought we were making progress. But the beak incident occurred when the wouldn’t let her in the coop one evening.
