I posted about 6 weeks ago and everyone thought we had pullets then, now I am beginning to see some changes like deep red colors popping up so I am wondering if they are in fact pullets or roos. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sorry for the bad pictures but we have had nothing but rain for the last week with another week of rain coming. Sorry the pictures are jumbled but having computer issues.

This black and white one has started to develop the red as you can see on his breast but I do not see any on the side in the other picture below - Blacky

This one also has a red breast and the shoulders have a red tint to them. - Fiesty

Blacky

I think this white one is also a hen. - Snow

This one I still believe is a hen - Lion (kids names her)

^Agree, none of them have the really telltale deep red shoulders. A salmon breast can be on females, too.
 
Thanks, everyone local keeps telling me that they think Fiesty is a Roo because the salmon color is getting darker on him. That is why I wanted to double check. Thanks for your replies!
 
This is our first flock of chickens and we have a very mixed group we bought from a TSC so I am still trying to learn as much as I can to understand what I am doing and know more about the birds we have. Thanks Again.
