Hen or Roo?

Thought big foot was a hen but look at the points on the feathers. What do you think?

Looks like a pullet to me! You really ought to enter her into the BYC calendar contest! You take very nice pictures!

About 11 weeks. We already have one surprise Roo, I can't have 2. Not enough hens lol. The feathers had me worried, looking a bit pointed. I know you never know what EEs will look like, but I've been going back and forth.

So far it does look like a pullet to me.

I agree! The coloration is very unusual for a Pullet but she's an egg layer

Pullet!

The tail feathers are sometimes pointed on a pullet. The back or saddle feathers are where girls feathers are rounded but males will become pointed as they mature.
