rhode Island red- hen or cocks

[Studio2770]

If any of your RIR have saddle feathers, they're cockerels. Look at your white rooster to see what I'm talking about. They're the long pointy feathers that flow at the base of the tail.

All chickens have those Studio2770 but in the males they are longer and pointier. You can also look at the hackle feathers which will be similair to the saddle feathers if they are male. Another pointer is the size of the feet. Compare these to the feet sizes of your other birds.

could we have 1 just a bit to the left . Sorry for being so choosy. I need to see the saddle feathers. A picture of the lower back will be fine.

Beast is a roo he has the pointy saddle feathers, pop looks like a hen and Pip also looks like a roo as I can see the shiny saddle feathers also coming in.

 

[leghorn4]

it's a fairly wet day so the rain is making pip more shiny than s/he is

 

[maxpedley]

That is a cockerel.

As before, Pop is your only pullet. The rest are cockerels.
