Is this a roo?

I bought him/her at feed store as female EE but the tail is throwing me off. Did I get a roo?

I believe you did. He's beautiful though!

Cockerel. He's got a bright red comb and red coming in on his shoulders.

I have a few Bantam EE’s. This one has been the darkest gray bird and now approaching nine weeks is developing red patches. Are these what you mean by red shoulders?

yep, that uneven redness only on the wings is male-only coloring

I noticed this bird has been consistently more alert and aggressive since being a young chick. I’m not surprised. Thanks for confirming what I was thinking!

What do you think of this one? I had a hunch this one ( picture taken at 7 weeks) might be a cockerel, but has a mellower temperament.

I’m leaning towards pullet because “her” comb is paler/pink like the other girls. I don’t know enough to really know what I’m talking about. Any thoughts?
