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

[AfricanChicken]

I'm new and also started my own thread with bad pics, but I'll post here now. Got 2 new Koekoeks (South African breed). I picked them for paler and smaller combs out of the flock, so hoping they're pullets!

Hatched June 2017. Silkie cross, pullet or cockerel?

9 week old Easter egger, what do you think?

Look like hen, but a pic of tail would be better

I don't have polish, but the crest looks pretty rounded = female.
No saddle feathers or red tint in comb/wattles are more clues for a female.

I think I posted in this thread before about this guy.

Need a fresh opinion on my 20 ish week old Golden Campine. I still don't know! I feel as though everyone will say pullet but something is different about Newt...largest Campine, still has the biggest and reddest comb and waddles, sounds a bit different(?) Also, his/her wings are gold tipped. The others, not so much. Our coop is far enough from the house to mask chicken sounds so no notable crowing.

The best pictures I could get. ...there was too much excitement overchicken Mom braving the cold. Ignore the poop. You know, chickens. Haha

The best way to tell with these is to compare them to each other. I know you were concentrating your efforts on getting decent pics of the suspect but standing alone, there's nothing to compare against.

That said, the comb/wattles don't look especially masculine and the tail shape is still feminine at 20 weeks so I suspect it's a pullet. There isn't any definitive way to tell until she lays an egg.

BTW, your water bucket should be up higher. They should be able to walk underneath it without ducking and reach up to drink.

Hello. I have a four month old bantam frizzle that I am beginning to suspect is a cockerel. These are my first chickens and this is my only frizzle so I have no one to compare her (him?) to, and it seems hard to tell with frizzles. She has started kind of crowing in the morning, not a full on crow but seems like she's trying to make the sound. She's a little bit of a bully with the other chickens and I've seen her chest bump them. I'm attaching some pictures from today and one of when we got her at 4 weeks old. Thank you for taking a look!

P.S. I know their waterer is sitting low, I was just letting them free range today and took it out of their pen and set it on a empty pot while they were running around.
