Hen or Cockerel?

[MansonRM]

Hello Everyone,

It’s that time again to play everyone’s favourite game..Hen or Roo??? These three are 9 weeks old and a bit of a barn mix so I am struggling to figure it out. A few weeks ago I was leaning towards all them being cockerels but now I’m not sure as I see no hackle or saddle feathers but maybe it’s too soon. Let me know your guesses. Thanks for you help

If they are only 9 weeks old, I think that all are cockerels.

Those are pretty big combs for that age. Also leaning towards cockerels.. but that first one gives me pause, Id wait for saddle feathers to confirm.

That’s exactly my thinking and I feel if any are not cockerels it will be the first. I’ll have to wait a few more weeks then

Yes, that’s where I’m leaning too.
