Im back with this unidentified thing..

[4 Georgia Hens]

I think it is a pullet. I have a red sexlink hen who's tail sticks up and has the same posture!

Here's a splash Langshan pullet at about 6 mos and a black roo at 3 mos if it helps.

My $.02 is that's a hen.

I'm in the same boat, trying to figure out if my phoenix mixes are cockerels. I think they are. Going to post them and see what people think. But I think yours is a cockerel.

I think the same as Sourland. BTW a padded room sounds nice, I bet you can fall asleep standing up, in one.

BAHAHAHAHAHA....we sooooo want them to be pullets/hens....it's a wonder we don't end up in padded rooms.

I would like it to be a pullet, because it's gorgeous. I'm a sucker for feather footed, big soft feathered chickens!

So, the guesses are so varied still. I guess I'm going to have to wait for an egg or a crow! Grrr

Your the first person I've found here that has langshans. Very pretty. Do you think mine is a langshan? It doesn't look Cochin to me, it has long legs and upright tail. No rounded appearance that I see on Cochin.

It's a Langshan. The upright tail is a breed characteristic, and the long legs as well. Whether it's 100% langshan or not? Idunno.

I got my chickens at a small, local hatchery. I called them when I realized my bird wasn't a Cochin and asked which other feather footed breeds they had and croad langshan was one. They assured me that they don't let their breeds mix, except of course the chicks that hatch. And it's entirely possible that I was given a langshan instead of a Cochin.
Thank you for your photos.

Honestly I love the langshan I have left (the splash died last week). I'm looking for a blue and splash to replace her. You don't see a lot of them, at least not in AZ.
