Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

They all look more like pullets to me this time. Combs don't look so red except the bottom one. I'm not familiar so with the breed so I looked up a few pics and now I think it's a cockerel. Not positive though. Here are some other pics I found on here..


These are all older pullets. Their combs are just as red but look a bit smaller then your younger pullet. Iay he wrong though. That's just what I found..

Her comb is really pretty pale. Kind of a coral color. I would think that if she was a he her neck feathers would be more white by now and her back feathers would be more pointy. What do I know, though? I'm asking you guys!

Hens or roosters? Thinking ladies but wanted to get more opinions. The lady that gave them to us said they are 2-3 months. Any guesses on age would be welcome too. Thanks!

Let me know if you need a picture of some other body parts or specific chickens. I realize Trudy's pics aren't the best. She screams if I try to hold her.

Stella is a pullet for sure. Sioux is starting to look like a cockerel.

What about the Austrlorp, Trudy? And I just read on a website that sells Iowa Blues that they are sex links and should have been easily sexed at hatch. Now I'm really confused!!

Nothing is ever 100 percent. I purchased 6 silver laced wyandottes pullets from a feed store and got 3 roosters once!! like I said I could be wrong but an older pullet shouldn't have a bigger comb then a younger pullet if that makes sense. The australorp looks like a pullet in this pic but I can't see her face.

Trudy still looks like a pullet, but it's not a sure thing yet. And Iowa Blues are not sexlinked at all. The hens can be used for breeding red sexlinks, though.

Well, bummer. I guess all I can do is wait. Y'all think on whether you might want an Iowa Blue roo!
