I'm just joining this forum because I, too, just realized that at least one of my "girls" is actually a roo. I am afraid I might have a second one (and hopefully not a third!). This is my first-ever flock and I was told at the local farm/feed store where I bought them that they were all pullets. I'm not really upset that they aren't, just was not expecting this change.
So, if I can get the photos posted - well, here they are and y'all can tell me if more than just the black/white/colored one is a roo.
This red started out as a mostly yellow-downed chick with a couple black streaks on her head. I've named her "Buffy."
This is "Cordelia" whom I will be re-naming "Spike" since I found out she's a he!
This is "Willow". Her tail feathers are much longer than the last three chickens, with whom she shares more of a similar color-pattern with.
Here's a group shot of my whole flock.
They are 12-13 weeks old in these photos.
Let me know what you think about Buffy and Willow. Thanks!
