Hen or Rooster

[DellaNTuff]

I was really leaning towards Hen on Chick Noris since the start but Im really starting to think I was wrong with the comb and waddle development lately.

Hatched on April 29th, Old English bantam (though the hen did lay the egg the day my daughter brought her home and we were getting a batch ready so I let her put it in, so can not say for 100% her rooster is the father) The pair was her 6th birthday present.

I had my oldest daughter hold her as she was not staying still for pictures.

He's a cockerel.

Deep down I knew that ... Just was not ready to admit that lol.

What a sweet looking guy!

Thank you! He is really a cool guy! The girls have handled him a lot and just love him.

I really can't complain, out of that hatch he was in of 14 we only got 3 cockerels including him!

Pretty colors!, yes those saddle feathers are pretty thin which is the best way to see gender in most chickens

Cockerel. I don't think he's a pure old english game bantam, though.
