WOW!
That first bird is gorgeous!
If I am correct, I ended up with a ton of roos from this years hatch, so if you guys don't mind, I would like some help confirming that these guy are all roos.
These are definite roos yes?

Mostly likely roos?

Pullet (and a stunningly gorgeous one!!)
Probable pullet. Is it the same as the above?
I thought these were hens, but now that the tails are coming in, they look roo-ish:

The first 3 and the one under the solid black are all cockerels. The rest look like pullets.
Thank you so much, you just made my day. And yes, those 2 photos are of the same bird, I wanted to show the back really well since I wasn't sure about the sex of that one. Thank you for the complement as well. I have another very similar to her but without as much of the brownish shading.The first 3 and the one under the solid black are all cockerels.

TexasChick09, what did your pretty white/black/red pullet look like when younger? Experts, is there any hope for this guy? 5 weeks old.
Red is leaking in all over. New shoulder feathers are looking white.
Mine was a very pale chipmunk, like yours. I just figured with all the red coming in, it must be a "He". Seeing yours gave me a little hopeShe looked like this- front row, 3rd chick from left, next to the mottled cochin and white ee) Actually, all of the juveniles I posted photos of are in this photo as babies. My sweet broody there took some bantam chicks on as well as the EEs she hatched herself. I lost 2 of the Sebrights and the Barred Rock bantam from this group. The Sebrights weren't well to begin with, which is why I picked them up, and the Barrred Rock passed away when it was older. It just fell out one day.
Are you sure your guy is a roo?
