I hatched 4 LO chicks in April. Out of 4 I have two left my question is

Are both of these roo's?
See the difference in the rear ends?

 

[Michael OShay]

Given the size and redness of those combs and wattles at that age, they are both cockerels. Sorry. (

At 3 months, I would say yes, they are both roosters even though their backsides look different.

I agree

Omgoodness everything I have hatched or grew to be a rooster except for two lol

 

[donrae]

Agree those are cockerels.

 

[Mountain Peeps]

Definitely roosters

 

[Roxyfan]

the one with the tail is the dominant roo and the other one has had its tail feathers pecked off by the dominant roo
