Again, saying it is a cockerel.

Yep, Agreed.

What's it mixed with? Because that is the size of a Del hen's comb.

Looks like a pullet to me.

I will agree with those who say hen (I want HENS!) I don't know what she is mixed with but any guesses I'll take!

Okay I'm in on the pool. I will say pullet...it is a hard call. nothing on her/him is dramatic either way. You will have to tell us if it grows spurs or lays eggs!

 

[Louieandthecrew]

Okay! I'll tell ya if she crows!

Thanks!

Just an FYI - spurs are NOT an accurate way to sex a chicken. Both hens and roosters grow them. Some breeds grow them faster than others and since we don't know what this one is, I would not use this method.

Yah but I was just wondering how soon it would be just to know

It seems that the majority have said hen so I''ll be looking forward to some eggs!
