Well it seems to have more feathers than mine does. Also looks like it has a smaller comb. I would say pullet. Just comparing to mine though. Hope yours is a pullet

I had a group of orpington chicks last year and the ones that feathered out slow were all roos but don't do anything until you know for sure.

I have a group of 5 buff's about 1 week old...its very plain to see that 2 of them are roosters. Their wings are much shorter and they have not developed tail feathers yet while the 3 others have long wings and good tails already. I marked the boys just so I know for sure as they grow who is who. Sadly we cannot keep any of our boys, while we are allowed to have chickens and all our neighbors are fine with that nobody was ok with having a rooster or 2

Ive found them a good home though where they wont be eaten!

the thread starter I would say you have a boy right there, handsome one too. The other person posting...I cannot tell from your pictures what you have.

What about a Crow Collar? To prevent crowing.

I am going through this right now. How did your turn out?

No wattles yet, and his comb looks pretty much like everyone else's, oh well, guess I'll just have to keep waiting and watching lol. The suspense is killing me.
