Rhode island red, hen or roo?

[BiZz77]

I have 2 rhode island reds. The first one i am 90% sure is a rooster, the other i am on the fence. They are 10 weeks old. Please help me out!

Anyone there?

The first one is definitely a cockerel. The second one looks like it could be, too, with that big Red comb and waddle.

The first is very likely to be a cockerel. The second is 100% a cockerel. Those glossy feathers on his back are a male trait.

Cockerels.

nice looking cockerels

agreed, both cockerels.

FYI, they won't be 'roosters' until they're a year old. Likewise, a pullet won't be a hen until she's a year.

Thanks for the info, im a new chicken owner, didn't know that.

Well now.. I was really hoping my intuition was wrong. Turns out i have 3 cockerels and 1 hen out of the 4 chicks i raised. Haha.
