Hen or Roo?

[bmfenn]

Well, I've started to question if our 5 month old "Marshmallow", is a roo. No crowing. We've started getting eggs from 2 of the 3 birds, but I can only be positive of 1 bird is definitely a layer, and not sure which of the other 2 is laying. Her comb and wattles just keep getting bigger, and I'm not sure she's a hen anymore

Congratulations!!

Thanks so much! I felt she was a she, but wasn't 100%

Pullet for sure!

 

[Stepnout]

Pullet eggs soon.

Pullet 100%. A beautiful girl too, what breed is she? Don't worry about the eggs right now, chickens the same age don't always all start laying at exactly the same time!

She's a Jersey Gold. And she's started laying eggs, caught her on camera in the run.

Sure looks like a girl to me! Just with largish comb and wattles .

IIRC, a flopped-over comb is almost exclusively seen in females.
