LF Cochin roo or pullet?

[Connie123]

The lavender Cochin is 20 weeks - hasn’t crowed, but has watched the other Roos Mount the other pullets. When she/he does it, our dominant rooster doesn’t react. When the other Roos do it, the dominant rooster reacts. The partridge is 19 weeks, and has crowed. Our dominant keeps a close eye on him. The lavender is much smaller than the partridge, even though it is a week older. He/she is the same size as the other pullets the same age.

Definitely a cockerel! I can see pointed saddle feathers

Both are cockerels.

Both are cockerels! Just out of curiosity, where did you get the lavender one? I saw a breeder with them who bought them herself and I cannot figure out from where!

They both came from different hatcheries. One is from Hoover, and the other from Privett. That’s a big bummer. Wow. Thank you all. It’s so much smaller than the partridge. Honestly I’m so surprised at the lovely feathering. This puts us to four Roos, in a subdivision. This is our Balck
Copper Maran the same age, and a little Serama roo that has been separated with his last. What a wash! Out of ten PULLETS, three ended up being Roos.

They are both cockerels. Saddle feathers clearly showing on both. And the Partridge is sex specific patterned, a pullet would be a totally different pattern.

Very strange, I'm not seeing lavender LF for sale at either!

The Lavender came from Privett.
