Lemon Cuckoo or am I Cuckoo?

[Tretinker]

I am cuckoo that's not really in question!

The question is....is my buff orpington really a Lemon Cuckoo Orpington and is this a Roo too!

I posted a picture of my buff on FB and a few comments suggested this is a lemon Cuckoo not buff sadly!

Now look at it today I'm also wondering if I have another Roo.

This chicken is BIG but the feathers have a white point in the middle and then then coloured feathers around and so not technically pointy but that tail feather popped up today and now I'm thinking instead of 3 girls I got 3 boys what with my SS too

What do you think?

Buff or Lemon Cuckoo?

Boy or Girl?

Hahaha my husband is going to kill me!

Got 3 chicks to replace one rooster and all 3 are 21 weeks and just turning out to be roosters

He did say the little fatty would make a great table bird

Lemon Cuckoo cockerel.

He's handsome too!

He's got a lovely temperament too.

I'm torn now what to do. We've got 16 pullets/hens and 4 boys so that's not going to work.

Our neighbours we thought were cool have turned out to be prissy moaners. We will move once our youngest finishes secondary but that's 3.5 years away (not that I'm counting).
We would have a bachelor pad if it wasn't for them but I'm off to see if there is a forum for Rooster information.....
