It will be good to see your new pix, Staceymw. By now you should be seeing a difference in the hackles and tail feathers. The cockerels will be darker and almost black in the tail feathers. They will also glisten almost "iridescent." I have nine new 2 1/2 week olds that were hatched by a broody hen. At first I would have told you they were 2 pullets and 7 cockerels, but as they get older it's looking more and more like 4 and 5 respectively.
I already have two full grown roos, so I have no use for more of them. I'll prob try to sell or give away on Craig's List.
Oh, and you're right of course. Hens will not develop saddle feathers.
