Help! Nasty hen....or is it a roo???

[klschick1984]

So annoyed... have a 5 month old blue laced red wyandotte "hen" that has been really aggressive toward my flock, especially my one silkie hen. Honestly she has always been kind of a b and she is the biggest hen I have but her and my silkie rooster have been going to to toe and tonight I caught her trying to mount my cream legbar could someone tell me difinately if she is in fact a hen or a roo? I already have a silkie rooster and have 5 hens, I dont need another rooster. Thank you!

100% a cockerel. Separate him before he hurts the silky hen.

Is that a mix?

The feathers def look male, but overall, he does not look like a blrw.

I’m never confident enough to post on the gender questions but. Never say never.
That is a Roo

Poor color BLRW roo. For sure, 101%. He's got those male-exclusive saddles.

Thanks everyone I thought the feathers looked male but I was really hoping he wasn't. It's always tough getting rid of one, I'll just have to see if I can find a good home for him. My silkie just isn't as aggressive and he's really pretty....plus my girls only free range when I'm home, they aren't out all day by themselves.

I'm not sure.....I'm a first time chicken lady and she was sold to me as a blue laced red wyandotte

He's poor quailty.

He's good looking, if not perfectly marked. one of these cockerels needs to be gone ASAP; your little Silkiie is totally overmatched here.
