Hen or Roo?

[MrsJones05]

My chicks are a little over a month old. They are Cochin/Orpington. I got them from a homesteader friend.

I’m pretty sure this might be a roo, but wanted another opinion. The other 3 are bigger and have definite tails.

Thx

Tails mean nothing at this age.

Rookie mistake

Give it a few more weeks and post more pics

7 weeks. I also found out that they are actually Ameraucana / Orpington chicks. #1 still doesn’t have a tail lol.

#1 is a pullet. The rest are cockerels.

The dark one here might be a pullet, but it's still early and sometimes the lowest boys on the pecking order nature slower
