Gender? Isa brown

[Nmelley]

This is supposed to be an Isa brown. I thought I was safe in assuming she is really female because of her coloring, but she’s coming in with a lot of white (and she’s the only Isa in the flock so I can’t compare). She (?) is about 6 weeks. Is she really a cockerel?

Oh, boy. Maybe he’s an Amberlink roo?

That's a cockerel.

Crap. I’m brand new at this. This is the second breeder I’ve had trouble with

Thanks! That’s 2 out 4 that were supposed to be all female.

I had the same luck this spring. It sucks.

Were you able to ask the breeder to switch them out? Or give you a refund?

Nope, they were a farm store, and said no returns or refunds ‘because of COVID’
