Is my Barred Rock a Rooster?

He's a little over 2 months.

I would keep him if you can! I can't have a roo in the city, but I would have one if I could! There are a couple threads here about how wonderful roos can be and they will die protecting their girls. I say keep!

Thanks so much! I think I'll keep him around for a while. Love all the encouragement I'm getting, thanks!!!

Wow that's amazing!! I'm discovering that one of my "pullets" is possibly a roo too (next thread re 24wk EE) and this makes me feel good about keeping him. Never thought I wanted a roo but he was my favorite she and has a great personality. Good luck with your flock!!
