Breed and Male or Female 🦆 🐥

[HorseGirlAbby]

Oh, I can’t tell the difference between them on that just yet. I’m so new to this.

It takes some practice! The wattles tell them apart better right now. I notice the RIR cockerel has bright red wattles, and the pullet has next to none.

A cockerel is a rooster correct? I don’t want to rehome it, but I’ll have to.

Develop a 'Plan B', but don't rehome in a hurry. A couple more weeks will provide a more definitive picture of gender.

I’d say the only rooster is the red one in pic number 9.

I’m going to keep him as long as I can. As long as he doesn’t become aggressive toward the other chickens and the ducks.
