Cockerel or pullet?

[cherrynberry]

Thank you everyone! This is so exciting as it's our first experience with chickens!

Are you able to keep a cockerel? How many pullets and hens do you have?

To be honest, I am leaning feminine looking cockerel, but I am not too sure. @Overo Mare @Rhodebar Lover

Agree. Looks like a cockerel to me too.

If this one is a cockerel, we 10 pullets and 2 cockerels. We have 5 more 2 week olds chicks. If one of them is a cockerel, we will probably need to rehome one.

I agree with you.

I'd love to be in those shoes. I have to look for a cockerel as I ended up with all pullets. I figured it would be a mix and I'd be rehoming or eating a male or two but ended up getting none. I think the universe wanted to mess with me a little.. lol.

Is this 8 week old a cockerel or a pullet?

I had a similarly developing pullet.
