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


After a internet search I'm beginning to believe my precious little chick is a red broiler. I will post another photo in daylight hoping you more knowledgeable folks will prove me wrong. If it is true really not happy.... I paid for a buff orphinton pullet and if I'm right I have a Red broiler rooster.... Well fingers crossed I'm wrong :fl
Going to research red broiler in cases.

Definitely not a Buff Orpington with those yellow legs. :) I agree, he/she does look like a Red Ranger/Red Broiler, but there are so many "red colored" birds, it's hard to tell right now. What makes you think it's a he though? He doesn't look very much like a cockerel to me right now. It's possible she/he is a ISA Brown pullet. :)

These are some of my mix breed chicks about 10 weeks from what i can figure. Any thoughts on genders? Apologies for the photos they aren't a fan of photos

I'm going to go with all cockerels. The only one that might be a pullet is the third one, but he's got some pretty crazy tail feathers!

Sometimes it does a silent crowing like action...otherwise it has almost a song bird voice beautiful to hear.
To be honest the comb is still very pale pink but he/she has wattles at 4-5 weeks. Thought only males developed wattles this young.

[/SIZE]Honest to God I don't know why I need to know what breed or sex because I am keeping it all the same. But I feel driven to find out. This is what has been suggested across the forums. 1. Red Broiler 2. New Hampshire Red 3. Red sex link 4. Isa Brown . Like I said I seem to be driven to find out. This is what I know about her/him. Very docile I had to rescue her from the brooder but also very social. Gordo whistles at me when she sees me and cuddles when I have the time , grew very fast at first but it's growth has leveled out. Feathers are coming in soft and fluffy like my Brahma and Cochin.... Lol
The frustration of not knowing. :he

Well, she/he might be a stumper then! But I'm not seeing many cockerel traits, which is good. :) I know what it's like to want to find out what your bird is! I've had that feeling before. :D I can at least say that ISA Browns and Red Sex Links are the same thing. Best of luck!
 
breed not too important.. he said the one with the Mohawk is an orpington? all look like mixes to me.. just curious about gender more.. born dec 2 nd ish
