Blue Cochin 13 weeks sexing

[Erika of PEP Housing]

It was easier to see that my Buff Cochin was a roo, but this beautiful one is much slower in maturing and want to be absolutely sure before I re home. I am blessed to have a fantastic home lined up where I can visit Blue any time.

I sure would NOT jump to conclusions on that one! No pointy saddle feathers yet.

Glad ya got a home lined up, but still hoping for a gal.

Large fowl Cochins can be slow. It looks like a pullet so far.

Agree, and also the color is very even, which points to this being a pullet.

In my experience with Cochins, the cockerels do not hide their massive combs and wattles. I could tell who was a boy before they were even fully feathered. I also don't see anything making this necessarily a cockerel, so I wouldn't give up on this being a girl yet!

Looks like a pullet so far. I would give it a few more weeks just to make sure no male saddle feathers poke out...
