Pullet or Cockerel? (#2)

[cstephens1987]

As an fyi, the reason the saddle feathers look rounded is because the pointy ones don't come in on males until 12-14 weeks usually

I don't think the comb should be that red at ten weeks for a female. More than likely a male.

That’s what I thought too, but I have a definite female (10 weeks), very red comb

Pullets don't usually have red combs until they are ready to lay eggs at around 20 weeks. This second one looks like an Easter Egger and they are hard for me to judge most times. But the red comb suggests male.

Sorry, since it was stated a few months... I thought they were older. At only 10 weeks... I would agree with the assessment here that those are some red combs and wattles for the age and saddle feathers are NOT coming in on most birds at 10 weeks old.

I have to agree, cockerels.

That's probably a cockerel too
