Australorp roo or pullets?

[Shipgirl]

Oh now I get it Smart decision!
I've just sold all my silkies for the same reason (space). And was lucky because that guy took all of them including 2 cockerels.
I will have to sell Australorp pullets too because now I've got to many (if the questionable one is a girl that would make it 12 plus 4 older ones plus the Bresse pullets (2 or 3 not sure yet)

I was supposed to have 10 total. Got up to 47.

In that case I've got nothing to worry about - planned 10, have got 23 at the moment (after 6 silkies are gone) - one is a male i have to cull, 1 male I am keeping for now but don't have to and 1 is a (mentally) disabled chick (don't know the gender) which will be gone at some point.

I have 12 now, debating on keeping my second cream legbar or not

Show us your birds

Here they are . These are my 7 week old pullets. All of my research on BA is that the Roos will show red combs and waddles very early on. I saw some as early as 3 weeks. You can see that mine still have pale combs and no waddles.

Yeah, they definitely look like pullets to me!

Just to update - looks like all the questioned birds are pullets. The one I really thought was a male from early days (comb got orangy pink) is a girl too. I'm so glad, she has such nice colours (very light blue). Her and the cockerel for comparison. 11.5 weeks
