Hen or Roo?

[ChickenShepherd_6116]

I have an 11wk old farmyard mix pullet, who's father I believe to be an Ayam Cemani. As you can see, she has sort of white penciled feathers on her neck, but is otherwise completely black. I just purchased her, so I have no past experience with farmyard mixes or the Ayam Cemani breed. Do you think she is a pullet or cockerel? And if you happen to have any guess as to what she is mixed with, let me know!

Based solely on your pictures and my limited experience, I think you have a hen. As for mixes, I'd guess a Wyandotte. I'm no pro by any means so hopefully someone more knowledgeable will answer.

It isn't necessarily mixed, might just be poorly colored and therefore a breeder's cull (but fine for most backyard keepers). I'd expect a mix to show irregularities in the skin tone, not just feathers.

Strongly suspect young cockerel with that much comb and wattle already but give it a couple more weeks to be sure.

Based off those wattles and comb it looks like a cockerel to me.

He's either a cokerel or a hen that's reaching point of lay. Since he's not even 3 months old, I'd vote for cokerel.
