So, I can spot the Buff Orpington roos at a week or two old. This 7 week old Australorp has me concerned...I can't have another roo! I have gotten "Pullets" from the feed store 3 times, and if this one is a roo, I have gotten a roo each time. They say it's a 10% chance of them being sexed wrong. I am running 3 out of 22, much worse odds.

I'm thinking roo.. The saddle and hackle feathers look rather pointy, and the wattles at least look too red for it to be a pullet at 7 weeks.
