Until today, I had what I believed to be a quad of Jubilee Orpingtons. Two regular pullets, and a blue cockerel and pullet. Today I happen to notice that one of the pullets has some curved green tail feathers under her tail. That does not make me happy, as even one rooster is a bit of an experiment for us. Please tell me I have three girls? Btw, they are approx. 16 weeks in these pictures I took today.
The three girls. The dark one looking up is my suspect.

The known boy. He is a good 2 inches taller than the bigger girls, with a much larger comb and waddles. He also leads them all into the coop at night and directs them where to "puppy pile" for bed.

The 4 together, cockerel on the end. Yes I know the buff one (why is she that color?) is runtish. She just finished a round of antibiotics and seems to finally be growing.

A better picture of my suspect.

So, oh wise BYC members, is she a "she," or do I need to rehome someone? Could a girl Jubilee Orp have some greenish feathers?
