Dominique cockerel?

[BigBlueHen53]

I don’t know too much about the SOP, but he has a rose comb.right color legs, and what looks to be decent barring, so I can tell you he definitely isn’t bad

Thank you. I don't plan to show him or anything. Might breed him to my Dom hens. Thought it might be useful to the poster above who wondered if his rooster was a Dominique.

Here is SOP if anyone is interested

Hello! Here is an update on the Dominique I'm suspicious about being a cockerel. Also is her comb wrong? Dominique’s are supposed to have rose combs right? It seems like she has a strawberry type comb.

Here is my other Dominique that I’m sure is a pullet. Her comb looks right unlike my other Dominique’s comb.

 

[Tookie]

Here they are side by side. The one I’m suspicious about is on the right.

I should also add that they are 11 weeks old.

I do have 2 other cockerels that are crowing already and the Dominique I'm suspicious about isn't, not that it means it's not a cockerel.

I think they are both girls, I could be wrong but their combs seem small for 11 weeks to be a cockerel and their leg coloring is super dark. In about an hour I can add a photo of my 6 week olds, male and female with already a noticeable difference in their combs. Some females can be lighter, I have 3 younger ones I'm still trying to figure out because of that issue.

It's her comb that keeps throwing me off.
