Jersey Giant, Hen or Rooster?

[Emanderas21]

We have a Jersey Giant that’s 21 weeks old, not laying and I think it’s a rooster because of the tail feathers. My husband is pretty confident it’s a hen. Can anyone help us determine? Thanks!

I don’t have pictures outside the run as I had my toddler with me when I went to snap the pictures.

Definitely a cockerel.

Yep, tail says cockerel to me! From what I’ve heard, Jersey Roos are pretty docile, though!
For reference to you and anyone who may wander in here at a later date, here’s a couple comparison pics of my Jersey Freak pullet.
I have two, she’s MASSIVE compared to even the other Jersey!
(She’s also the same age as the white pullet in the images lol)

Thanks for all the responses, it’s as I suspected. However he has never crowed, is that normal for a 5 month old Rooster?

My Cochin (my avatar picture) didn't crow until he was 18 months when he started challanging my Buff for leadership.
