Hen or rooster?

[jenicasam]

Wondering about the one in beside the water bowl. Approx 4 months old now. The other 2 black ones from the same breeder have larger and darker combs.

I'm thinking a hen, and very pretty bird by the way!

I agree

Cockerel, saddle feathers showing.

I also think cockerel.

Is the color on it's back glare, or is it actual color on the bird? If so, that's a classic male sign.

 

[jenicasam]

Yes it's green coloring. I was thinking it's a male but wanted to be 100% certain as I'm attempting my first butcher this weekend!

Can anyone tell if my Blue Silkie chick is a rooster or hen? -- Hatch Date: 2016-08-18



Thanks!
