Female with large comb?

[TQueen108]

I have the same question. I have 6 chickens. 1 rooster I hope and 5 hens. The rooster started his doodling a couple of weeks ago. But one of the hens is a bit bigger than the others and has a bigger comb and wattles.

That's a hen. Yes some are more well endowed than others.

Please tell me this is a Hen and not a Rooster

Pullet. Until a year old, they are pullets not hens.

Pullet. Until a year old, they are pullets not hens.

Actually, looking again, can you post a side view of the tail? And how old exactly?

Can you tell male ir female. When I bought them I chose only 1 from the maybe tin. I bought them at tractor supply but I know it is not guaranteed. I am very attached to all of them and just terrified of losing one to a fight or having to re-home him which seems to be near impossible around here.

I was originally thinking pullet but would like some side views to be sure

Please take a side view of the chicken in question..I believe I see male-specific feathering but the angle in the photo is not good enough for me to confirm.

From that angle I’m going to say cockerel
