Is this a Welsummer Roo?

[sarahandbray]

Somehow, I've gotten confused with my Welsummer and Brown Leghorn Roos. I sold my two Roos that I thought were Brown Leghorns last weekend...please tell me these guys are my Welsummers! Hoping to keep one and I have a buyer for the other.

For 9-weeks-old, this is a Roo. Right?!?

Maybe try posting in the Welsummer thread also? https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/271757/the-welsummer-thread
I would vote they are probably Welsummers, second for sure, can't see the first that well, the BLH usually don't have that chest patterning etc.

Those look like wellies to me. Leghorn roos would have white earlobes.

They are Welsummers. Leghorns have white earlobes.

They are Welsummers.

They are Welsummers.

I agree.

Thanks!! And they're definitely both Roos, right? I'm leaning towards keeping the one with the darker red comb for now...not sure if a Wellie is going to stay as one of my two Roos, since I'm planning on keeping a Black Copper Maran and a Delaware at the moment...

Yes, they are both roosters.
