GLW Roo/Hen or Gender confused? **Updated **Boy**!

[PeakyBeaky]

Any more thoughts?

It's a handsome roo...it's interesting that it looks so much like a hen, but I'm pretty sure it's a roo.

I have one that looks exactly like that, and mine is a girl. But I went back and forth forever until I FINALLY found her laying an egg. Sometimes one sneaks in and confuses us all until it lays or crows

It looks like a hen to me. I mean I am no expert on that particular breed. If you wanna know if that egg is a fart egg, crack it open. If it has a yolk and a white then it is a regular egg. If it is just the white then it is a fart egg. It is a oops in the process of egg making, if you think your little egg is cute, try getting one from a coturnix quail. It was the size of the tip of my pinky SO CUTE! But I think that you have a hen there. I mean all signs in feathering and coloring point to roo, but there have been weirder things that have happened. So crack open that egg and see what you find!
