Help- Do I have a rooster

[stpaulchick]

In April I got 4 pullets from the farm store. We live in St. Paul and our neighbors agreed to the birds as long as we don't have roosters. Starting to get worried about Scout, a 3 mth old Buff Orpington

I haven't had any BO, but from what I've seen on here- it looks like a girl to me.

Really Sorry, but youve got a rooster. Definetely

Wait till it crows before doing anything drastic!

He's the same age as my BO pullet, and HIS comb is much larger and redder than mine...sorry...he's a roo. But I'd still wait and see how loud he is before you get rid of him... Also, you said St. Paul, but what state??

I'd like to see some full body pics to be sure, but some of those hackle feathers definitely look pointy, so sorry but a cockerel.

No crows yet. We decided to keep it for a while. Still hoping it is just a hen with a big comb. Feed store guy thinks its manners are too good to be a roo. Being very careful since we have a bantam silver laced wyandotte hen who is really small
