So I have this chicken that’s 3 months old, I think it might be a buff orphington but I’m not sure if someone could tell me that would be amazing, also I wanted to know if it’s a roo or hen some news, It’s the smallest chicken in the flock, It’s not very heavy, I have a roo that’s already crowing. If you could answer any of these thanks.

Looks like my buff Orpington. I have no idea on gender as I’m new to all of this.

It does look like a buffy but the words "smallest chicken in the flock" doesn't go with any of my fat buff orpingtons. Mine are some of my largest chickens.

What breed would it be if you had to assume?

Could very well be a buff Orpington. Can you get a good close-up of the head? Also close up sideview clearly showing the feathering area just before the tail known as the saddle area. The comb looks big in one of the photos but not so much in the other.

The comb isn’t very big compared to the others I highly doubt it’s a roo it’s just so tiny it has no indications of a rooster, a 9 year old child can hold it with 1 hand

Looks like a pullet. Possibly just small for her age.

Looks female to me.

I've had 'production' red's come out looking like that too. A pretty coppery color.

As small as you're describing her, she might have some bantam in her ancestry, perhaps?
