Hen or Rooster?

[Mark83087]

I have 3 black Australorp's and 2 Orpington's. One of my black one has been super developed much earlier than the others. I bought them back in mid February. Wanting to know if the developed bigger one is actually a rooster?

You are correct in guessing that he is a cockerel.

Nice lookin' boy with good posture and attentiveness. If you're allowed to keep him, you might consider it.
