[no rosters]

I think 6 months

How old? Not necessarily.

To be honest I'm not exactly sure. I'm guessing 6-8 weeks? It's the only RIR that's comb is turning red and has a noticeable waddle. And its tail is kinda pointy.

To be honest I'm not seeing a lot of "Rooness" there for 6-8 weeks. I would wait a couple weeks and post under "What breed what gender" thread with some more pictures. Make sure it's full body and head pictures. Let's keep our fingers crossed!

Thanks! I really hope not. We can't have roosters in our neighborhood.

I have two RIRs, this one has eye stripes and is overall darker. Is this a pullet?? What would y'all guess?
