got any closer clean looking pics of the neck area? sometimes i find it hard to tell on cochins unless i get a clear pic of the neck and buffs are hard to see. also, if you look at the feet, do you see any bright pink like your BCM has on his? this is a sign that if it is a male that he would be mating the hens/pullets.

What should I look for in the neck. I don't see any pink on the feet at all.​

I don't think its a roo, i have 5 buff cochin hens that are just over 20 weeks and laying and they looked like that at 16 weeks. I will try and find some of my pics of them. My cochins got red combs much much earlier than the girls and the cochins roo's had obvious feather differences that I don't see in this photo of yours.

definitely a roo. i have two that are exactly that age, and the roo looks just like that. the pullet has no red on her face whatsoever. i have a splash cochin that i was holding out hope on, and he's a he too! so disappointing. out of 11 cochin chicks, i got 10 roos!!
