Hen or rooster

[Ashleymicah]

We bought 6 easter egger chicks in June we ended up with 2 cockerels which we rehomed and we're left with what w

e thought was 4 pullets, but now we are questioning if one of them is a cockerel that just developed late. We did have a

dominant rooster in our flock that we had to dispatch 3 days ago because he attacked our 2 year old for the third time scratching her face, thinking maybe the chicken in question was submissive to our older rooster. The pullet/cockerel in question is twice the size of our 1 year old hens which is what's making us think it may be a cockerel.

Pullet, by the redness of the comb she will begin to lay soon

Point-of-lay pullet.

No saddle feathers. Looks like a pullet.
