Is this a Rooster?

[askjcm2005]

I got 3 "hens" from a local person who lives nearby. They are all the same breed. Wondering if 2 of them are roosters. They arent crowing yet so I am not positive. I know some females have big red combs so I didn't suspect anything til the 3rd started getting picked on alot and I realized her comb is way different.

That is a hen. The particular breed tends to have a larger comb, either sex. Very pretty hen you have there. Best wishes!

This is the 3rd. The poor girl getting picked on.

If they are hens now wondering if the 3rd is just sick or malnourished from being picked on so much.

Does she have access to feed and water? If not, she needs it asap.

 

[RodNTN]

She looks malnourished.

She looks malnourished.

Thanks! That's what got me concerned in the first place. Any good at home remedy? Some suggested scrambled eggs or oatmeal. All our feed stores are closed on Sundays so I can't get electrolytes until tomorrow.

Any idea on the breed of these hens?

I am assuming Leghorn's.
