Can anyone tell me that this pretty baby is not a boy?

It wouldn't be the first time one has tricked me but it's usually the other way around when that happens. All of my EEs have the long, gamey tails but the girls had blunt ends on theirs as juvies while the cockerel had points like yours. And they have that Mediterranean stance, too (one even has the white ears...)

None of my ee/leghorn cross pullets had combs that red that early. He's just too young for hackle/saddle feathers. It's male, sorry.

See the way he/she stands, and the bright red comb at this age, as well as the tail feathers already getting pointy? These are all good signs that he's a rooster. I'm sorry...

I dont see any reason for him/her to be a boy. I am going to say hen but the tail is a bit rooster like. Good Luck!

Well Wilson definitely turned out to be a boy... I have another trio of these guys and now that i have experience i can spot one is a boy right away. Both of them are coming with me to the swap in High Springs on saturday.. so if you want a big white roo... he will be there !!!!
