Not Sure if You've Got a Pullet or a Cockerel? Click here! thread 3

So awesome! This thread is in the "Hot Threads" category!!!
Congrats!

 

hi everyone. I'm wondering if this BR might be a cockerel. he's about 4 weeks old. I'm wondering because he is about the same size as the rest of my flock but dosent have as many feathers and he has a comb which some of the others still don't have. thanks!

 

So, I'm coming to grips with the fact that I have two absolutely gorgeous, albeit unplanned, RIR roosters. Now, I'm wondering if I have another one :-/ What do you think? This one is just shy of 3 months old. Also, do you mind explaining what exactly you're looking at to determine sex, please? I believe it's combs and waddles (not sure if I spelled that correctly). Thank You!!!

 

Assuming the bird above is a cockerel due to comb growth. If that is true, then also assuming the bird below (same breed) is a pullet (not the best photo quality). Both are 6 week old

 

That is not a Rhode Island Red. That is a Red Sexlink. And it's a pullet.

 

Yes, this one is a Red Sexlink. Sorry I didn't make that more clear. I have two RIR roosters and wasn't sure if this one was pullet or rooster (thinking I had another rooster). Gotta say, you made my day Thank You!!!!

 

Looks pretty dark to be a cockerel - sometimes that happens, but until any other evidence arises - I'd say pullet.
