I love reading about everyone’s “rooster or pullet” questions and seeing the pictures. I’d love some input on mine. Thanks in advance!
6-7 week old chicks
Questionable chicks: rhode island red and black and brown bantam

I'd say you'll have a banty rooster. The RIR looks pulletish to me. I don't see any black/iridescent feathers coming in. The wattles are maybe a little large for 7 weeks.
I hope you are right about our RIR! I’m holding out hope she’s a she! She is huge, but still very hen looking at 9 weeks now.
