Thank goodness there is some hope for my flock! We will keep her until she starts crowing...

Which he just did this morning. So sad. Only 3 hens left.

Sadly, mine was a rooster. Just started crowing this morning. Live and learn!

Can say I'm a little surprised. Comb looked awfully red, but the feather pattern wasn't there, so it was a toss up. Sorry about your luck

coloring and shape looks feminine, but that's an awful lot of comb for a pullet of that age. I'm leaning pullet, but no where near positive.

i agree. also the tail feathers do look a bit long and pointy for a pullet that age...

Well never mind guess it definitely is a roo if it just started crowing!
