I'm not sure what they are as if they aren't pullets noone wants them and they'll be culled, maybe now so not as much feed is ''wasted''

yeah, I've been wondering for a while whether the black one is a roo but it's very very shy and sweet so I jsut wish it would be a girl. Can I just ask how you could tell if it's a roo?
