Lord Featherington is a lord, right? EE at 12wks

[Whigru]

I’d like confirmation that Lord Featherington - the EE with brown/red/black feathering - is indeed a lord. He was supposed to be an EE pullet but I don’t think that’s the case. My birds are 12wks tomorrow.
I have not heard a crow yet, but these feathers and his size make me pretty confident he’s a cockerel. The comb appears to be a single or a pea comb, but has stayed small and yellow/faintly pink even as the rest of the girls are starting to pink up a bit. He is also very timid and tends to stay in the back or hide behind others.
I’m quite certain he’s a he but am hoping for confirmation from experts before I decide how to handle the situation (I’ve only got 5 pullets so I don’t think there’s enough room or girls for him to behave).

Yep, with those robust tail feathers, that has to be a cockerel!
Some breeds just don't grow combs as fast as others. That comb looks like a single comb.
I love the name!

Thanks! The EE I had a couple years ago had similar fancy tail feathers but she was smaller than this guy and wasn’t as flashy with coloring. That’s the only one I’ve got to compare with, as the other EE I’ve got now is white with some gray spots, but not nearly as big/fluffy as this one.

The first thing that popped out to me was that rooster stank eye. Lol the Roos just have that look about them.

Pullet.

Pullet.

Agreed

Definitely a rooster, guys. Look at the saddle & neck feathers.

I did. It’s definitely a pullet.

 

[Little Baby Bean]

Definitely a pullet. And a very cute one at that.

What makes you think this is a pullet? I really don't see it. Combs don't make a rooster.
