Is this a little roo?

It's been a little bit since I posted this, Ash will now be 17 weeks old on Sunday and yesterday he started squatting.. Do roosters squat or is he really a she?? He has never crowed, but I was just thinking he is a late crower.. Here are a few pics I took today.

this is the squat, he was standing and i rubbed his back and he dropped down and lifted his butt up

These pics scream definite boy. See the pointy saddle feathers coming along? And his legs are a big give away as well.

200% cockerel he may start crowing but if you have another rooster in with him he may not crow. he does have the nice cockerel saddles coming in at the base of the tail

he's the only male I have and he was squatting again today, he looks like a cockerel to me too but this squatting has really got me thinking he's a she. I guess we will see if he lays an egg soon..lol
