Hens or Roos?

[btiflchick]

Everyone else is crowing... I haven’t seen these two crow yet. They said they were from a silkie/ mottled Cochin pen. 16 weeks. No eggs yet. Fingers crossed.

I brr e live both are females, I am not the best at telling gender, but pretty sure.

 

[Vickischics]

Thats because they are pullets!! Lol

Answer: Yes!





I'm kidding. (I don't really know)

 

[Vickischics]

Lol, yes, they are Pullets.
How old are they?
They look about ready to lay soon.

 

[The Happster]

Its really difficult when they are young to predict. But, we try because so many people like myself are dying to know.
Their tail feathers probably fan out and are round and organized. The Roos are more pointy and not organized. They would show Sattle feathers and the cape feathers are more pointy too.
The comb and wattles are a good indication too.
Begin to look at pictures people send in and begin to learn.
