hen or roo ? & not sure it’s the breed i was told

I agree re females. Dont go by color as much as conb development and spurs. At 12 weeks a cockerel will be starting to make hilarious attempts at crowing. They can also run at you and bam into your shins.
 
they’re suppose to be 3 months at the end of the month but umm now im not sure of that either
just happy they’re pullets :love
 
I was told that this was a pullet blue leghorn 3 months old
but I’m not so sure
watching it over the few days as it grows its waddles are becoming very red as well as its feathers
The white one I’m pretty sure is a white leghorn pullet but the blue one I’m not positive as there is some brown lacing starting on the feathers as well
Blue can have the base color show through as it's like black, it's not a true feather color. So, a gold base showing through here and there is really not the same thing as lacing and it doesn't mean the bird isn't blue.

The ears also are white, they just aren't glaringly obvious yet as they will be later when the lobes develop. But, especially in the photo where she's facing away so I can see behind the feathers, the skin IS white where the lobes are.
