Help rooster?

[newbies0331]

Can I tell if I have a rooster just by the look of his mow hawk? I am new to this chicken thing. We have 6 and only this guy looks like this. All are the same breed

He is a cockerel!

What does that mean? My hens will have baby chicks?

Only if the eggs are incubated.

Oh my I have done no research on this

How old are your birds? Can you take a side shot? Certainly looks cockerel based on the comb (Mohawk) alone , but that depends on their age as I don't see any other sex characteristics showing - were they by chance sold as "production reds"?

Only if you let them breed and then let the hen sit/incubate the eggs for 28 days or so..... you do need to do some research
a friend of mine thought the same thing when she ended up with a rooster....she said to me 'oh no... now i'm going to have baby chicks' LOL

Need to know age. The one in front may be a hen coming into lay.
