    Can anyone help me determine the gender of my 12-15 week old Chocolate Orp? It's supposed to be a pullet, but I'm not sure. She has a VERY upright stance, and there is a bit of pink in her comb. Thanks for any advice or help![​IMG]

    Even with the extra picture, I'm still saying pullet. [​IMG] My Orp roo was way more developed at that age!
