Hello! It's been a couple weeks since my last post, where everyone helped me determine that I had no roos except MAYBE this one Wyandotte. I wanted to post more pictures of the two and see if anyone can help narrow it down to be more certain. I am befuddled because between the two, the smaller one has the bigger/redder comb and wattle, as well as a curled tail feather and red feathers coming in over their shoulders. Is it possible the roo could start smaller? They came from the same batch and are the same age. I named her Trina, and her more pullet-like sister is Mina. Trina also tends to hold her head higher and straighter when she walks, which someone mentioned in my previous post as a cockerel trait. Let me know what you think, thanks!

I should also mention that they have all been molting a lot lately due to hot days, so Trina is missing some tail feathers
 
Here's some lucky shots of the two side by side. You can really see the color and comb differences here!

I agree I have one and she’s looking similar. She got redder and wattles quicker than my other breeds but then kind of stopped and now looks just like your pullets 😊
