Is Ginger a rooster?🤷‍♀️

[LadiesAndJane]

I agree this bird could be a pullet if it was POL, but since it’s only 11 weeks it is pretty obvious it’s a cockerel. You won’t see much saddle feathers until a few weeks from now, though does appear to be getting some.

I found this picture in my camera roll. I tried zooming in and cropping out Amelia.

After seeing this picture, I say cockerel.

Hello, I’m a new chicken momma. We picked six pullet chicks at the local feed store. Ginger, one of our Rhode Island Reds seems to be looking more like a roo. Any help would be great. 11 weeks old, hasn’t tried to crow that I’ve heard. He/she will be 12 weeks old on Monday.

Is he growing faster than the others? Longer legs? This same thing is happening to one of our 14 week old Red Producers. Yesterday, he tried jumping on a hens back!

Ginger for sure was Gino, and if your bird is mounting the pullets it most likely is a cockerel.
