Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or A Cockerel? Click Here!

Here are the 2 Welsummer (hopefully) pullets taken today at 7 weeks


And the one likely cockerel taken 2 weeks ago at 5 weeks

Welsummers can be sexed by the color of the chest feathers. A reddish brown chest is always going to be a pullet. A black chest is always going to mean cockerel.

Interesting. I didn't know that. I'll have to take a closer look tomorrow.
Pretty sure the top 2 have the reddish brown chest. Not sure I've seen black on the last one. Is 7 weeks too early for the chest feathering color markers?

Could you get a better tail shot? I believe it is a cockerel. Where did you get it? How old is it?
