Green Queen Hen or Roo?

[emmastaff]

Ok so I ordered two green queen pullets from meyer hatchery that are now 12.5 weeks old, is this a rooster or hen?

That’s a rooster!

Looks like a cockerel to me.

It's a cockerel.
If you report the mistake at the hatchery they'll refund you the difference.

I don't know. I haven't had any.
I just received my free replacement chicks from Meyer Hatchery, in excellent condition. 2 Heritage Plymouth Barred Rocks, 1 cockerel, & 1 pullet. 2 Sumatra pullets.

No, I haven't had any green queens.

I did order a Welsummer pullet earlier this year, & it turned out to be an accidental cockerel.

Gorgeous! Here is my Green Queen pullet from Meyers for comparison. I would say she's less noisy then the others but not sure how a rooster would be.

She's about 11 weeks in this picture.

Oh boy, we ordered a Green Queen hen from Meyer as well, and she is starting to behave like what I imagine a rooster would
( aggressive, craning her neck and displaying dominance, kicking) none of the girls in our last flock acted like this. This bunch is just over a month old, hoping I’m wrong!
