Don't worry bout Gandalf being a pullet. I have a hen named Walle with an awesome beard too.

Is this a roo? Supposed to be pullet but I am thinking not. See the one pic where it looks like spurs coming in?

 

[cabinchicky]

looks like roo comb to me but I could be wrong. have hen who has one almost as large as my male.

 

[schnebbles]

what about the things that look like spurs? Hens don't get them do they? Another thing I remember thinking was weird was when I got "it", it seemed really bold to my d'uccle roo which I thought was odd for a pullet.

I have pullets who had bumps grow for bit, but yes sounds like a roo but pls let more ppl answer. I new to males n I not an expert. I don't want to be wrong.

That is a roo.

red patches on wing + bright red comb+ spurs= roo

FVRM, I was not sure so thank you! I missed the red on the wings.

You're welcome! white birds are harder to tell sometimes but always look for red on wings.

That's interesting. I didn't know about that. Well it explains the behaviour with my d'uccle. I wouldn't have thought a pullet would stand up to a roo like it did.
