Thanks
For the CLBs, is that the case even if one had much less than the others??
Yes, male CLBs do not have any pink on their chests from what I have seen, plus their combs are tiny.

My last concern is an RIR.
People on here have consistently said 100% pullet, but her comb had started to grow quickly and her tail has started to look like a 'hook'
First pic is her today, and the second pic was a week ago

15w she's in that original photo at what was apparently 7wks, though she was still yellow!I think that's a girl too, but how old is she?
Thanks. I've never before seen the community so divided over a single bird. After all this nurturing, I'll be gutted in case I can't keep her!!I really, really think the Sussex is a cockerel. He got a comb in early and his body shape and lankiness are cockerel like. To have a comb getting redder like that it should be 16 weeks as a pullet and be more filled out and mature looking

So that puts me on 2 cocks and 6 pulls... Unless we think big mags (LS) is a pull, in which case 1 cockerel (pekin bantam) and 7 pulls... Which would be alrightYep, the RIR is a girl!

Interesting. How many hens? I soooo can't bare to think of getting rid of any of these after putting so much effort in... I might be able to placate the neighbour, but still, if I've got 2/3 cocks, and only 5 pulls....That sounds like a good ratio to me! I once had three roos lol
