Lots of disagreement!

Hello

Some people say 100% hens, others not so sure... No eggs yet... No crow yet... 6 months old! I am soooooo intrigued.

It doesn't matter either way - I just want to know for sure!

Yes, These long and pointy light saddle and hackle feathers show their gender as well as comb and wattle size and colouring.

I don't see long and pointy saddle feathers. I would think they'd have them by now. When did their combs get so red?

In the last 2 weeks or so.

I would say cockerel also. At 6 months old most hens don't have that much comb yet. Some roosters get their saddle feather late. Mine is over a year and still lacking in that department.

Cockerels, no doubt. The coloring is male exclusive, there are indeed male saddle feathers there....
