both genders get spurs and should have gender feathering in now but, not very distinct. I think BOs develop slower than other breeds.On the fence with this one - sorry

I'm leaning pullet on this one. I don't see any male saddle feathers, I don't see the dark orange wing bars that male BO develop. We have an early comb and wattles, but I don't see anything else that says cockerel.
Let us know how this one turns out. It seems to be trying to hide until either he busts out with that first spectacular crow, or she lays that first egg.

I like my BO roosters. Are you keeping him or does he have to leave?

I’m sorry

Yep. He has to go

Yep. He has to go

I hope he’s a nice boy and you can rehome him.

We found a home so that is good! Maybe next year!
