I had this one tagged as a cockerel. But no saddle feathers (yet), no hackle feathers (yet) and I just saw the tail. To me s/he is totally starting to look like a pullet.

Definitely not laying. 17 weeks old. But comb and wattles showed up early.

So does mine, but the tail, the skinny legs. I had this one tagged for harvest in a couple weeks. I don't want to accidentally harvest a young pullet.

When I zoom in on the second pic.. pretty sure I can see pointed (not rounded) feathers.. despite them not being long or flowing yet.. I'm also going with late blooming boy.

Always use YOUR best judgement though! :fl
