Is this a hen or cockerel. Also what breed

[hc8906]

Hi everyone,

I rehomed some chickens and was told that they were all hens but after looking closely at them all I now think 2 maybe cockerels but im not sure. I also dont know what breed they are as the person that I rehomed them from couldnt remember.

If anyone could help me I would be very grateful. The pictures I have arent that good. Its the 2 big brown ones.

Many thanks

Do you have better pictures? I don't know this breed but in the second picture it looks like saddle feathers coming in

Brahmas have yellow, feathered legs and pea combs.

I think they could be buff Sussex, depending on the OP's location. They are also cockerels.

Will upload better pictures tomorrow. Also they are 5 to 6 months old

I don't know, they are tough to call. At first glance the tail feathers scream cockerel but they have a lot of fluff on their backsides for a rooster and their combs aren't very developed for their size.

Breed Guess : New Hampshire

Gender Guess: Hen or late blooming cockerel

Oh duh! I always forget they have feathered feet. I have never had them so..

Those are absolutely males, sorry. Not sure on the breed, the color is I think buff Colombian, not sure what breeds come in this color.

It does look like they might have saddle feathers.
