Delaware Mix - Hen or Rooster?

[Louieandthecrew]

Hello,
I just posted a different thread called "Welsummer - Hen or Rooster" and the first picture has my Delaware mix in it. A lot of people were saying that she was a roo and the same amount say hen! So I was just seeing what everyone else out there though! I was also wondering what she is mixed with. Any guesses? Thanks!

she and Syrup (a roo)

when she was younger

Every oppinion counts! Thanks!

I want to say pullet, but I can't be certain without knowing the age.

 

[Louieandthecrew]

Sorry, she/he is 5 or 6 months old

laying yet, I think its a pulet though I dont see saddle or hackle yet, any spurs coming in yet?

 

[Louieandthecrew]

No spurs yet but she also isn't laying yet lol I hope your right but I still don't know!

 

[Louieandthecrew]

Help?!?!

5 or 6 months? In that case I say pullet for sure. The comb and wattles would be bigger if it was a roo (and you would of heard some crowing by now). Typically pullet's combs turn red when they are about ready to start laying; and 5-6 months old is the average age for a pullet to start laying.

It is a boy.Did you saw the comb when he is younger?

I think pullet - stance looks very girly, and 5-6 months a roo should be VERY obvious.

Bet $100 on pullet! (I'll PM you my address and you can send a money order when it lays a egg)







(I'M KIDDING!)



But really... pullet.


BTW - I breed Dels... what is she mixed with? Do you know?
