I thought they were pullets??

Dear all,

are these pullets or cockerels?
A while ago, also on this website, I was told they were pullets. This morning at sunrise: kuckelekuuuuu...are they just being noisy? They fight a few times a day, and they're about 5 months...no eggs yet...

they are both roosters, sorry

The white colored one most definitely is a rooster. The other one looks like one too just I can't quite see it's saddle feathers.

See those new long feathers that have grown around the neck. That was the first change I noticed between my hens and roosters.

Everyone guessed my rooster wrong originally too

Oh crap....And I liked them..

 

[mikaelB]

Guess I will have to return them asap as they're starting to fight!

Don't feel bad, all I wanted was a small flock of four silkies, i went through three cockerels until i finally got my girls! Sad but true.i rehomed them.but the frustrating part was i had three girls, my fourth kept turning into the cockerel! Finally i got my fourth and she is a she! Silkies are very hard to sex!

This is a better picture of the leghorn:

Both are males, and the brown one is not a Leghorn. He's a mix - probably a Marans mix.
