Jubilee Orpington 3 1/2 months old

[Barb Root Hinkkanen]

Good afternoon, chicken lovers,

I have a chicken, born about April 7, that is supposed to be a Jubilee Orpington. It still hadn’t gotten any darker at all. Is it a hen or rooster? It has all the same characteristics as another girlie I brought home the same day. I brought home three, one rooster, one hen, and this one.

I would appreciate any input. Thank you!

Looks like a Bielefelder cockerel to me.
It's how many weeks?

I don't know what he/she is but he/she is definitely not a jubilee orpington. The price difference on a Bielefelder and a jubilee is intense enough for you to probably try to say something to your purchase source.

Doesn't look at all like my 2 yr old Jubilee Orpington. How about a Golden Cuckoo Marans female?

Thank you. The other hen and cockerel pair German Beilefelder and their coloring is just like pictures of them. They can be sexted from hatching...This one is bigger and totally different colors.

How many weeks old is it?
GCM is definitely a possibility. The breeds are fairly similar.

I gave her a girlie name because I wanted it to be a girl. The other pair are German Beilefelder, same age, and it looks nothing like them.

Not a Jubilee Orp, and a boy. Maybe a Calico Princess boy?

The parents were on property, also.

15 weeks old. The other pair that I brought home, same age, are German Beilefelder. Parents were on property. So were
the Jubilees. That’s why I picked up a third chirping to bring home.
