Going on 21 weeks here and ready for an egg or 2. Question is, am I getting eggs drumsticks?
(Are these hens or roos?)

 

[NatJ]

I'm guessing females, because I would expect males to have much larger combs and wattles at that age.

I cannot clearly see the feathers in the saddle area, which would also help. They grow from the bird's back, but on roosters they usually get long and pointy and hang over the tail. On hens, they stay shorter and have rounded ends.

Looking very much like a hen

Looks like pullets- so expect some eggs!

 

[RickWithChicks]

Excellent! Thanks guys. I can't wait!

Pullet.
My girl at the same age was an early bloomer.

She looks better now, & has a nice rounded rump. This is an older picture.

I also believe you have pullets.

Pretty pullets!
