Pullet or Cockerel??

[warsawffagurl]

OKAY!
umm.. well i have a BO that is supposed to be a pullet, and she's actually is about 5 months old...
but she has a large comb and wattles...and they are just getting redder
she's never crowed but i wanted to make sure she isnt a he...
i also have a picture of my rooster who is the same age as this supposed hen.. and he crows a lot.. and is way bigger than her...

I'm no expert but based on the feathers I would say maturing hen.

I have BO that where hatched out april 8th. Congradulations.. You have a Hen!! I have 5 BO hens and 2 Roos..neither one of the Roos are crowing and the hens aren't laying. But, I am sure in time they will. I just went out to the chicken coop to see the difference between the hens from the roos. If she was a Roo..she would have a beautiful neck cape. You have a beautiful maturing hen that is in no hurry to lay eggs!!!

Good luck with her..I love my Buffs!!!

They both look to be hens.

I would agree she is a pullet but yeah she does have some largeish wattles doesnt she?
