I *think* that those are all roosters. Love the blue eye on the one though! Don't think I've ever seen a blue eyed chicken before.

Can't see the saddle feathers in this photo, it's too blurry.


The bird up front in this one is definitely a rooster. He has pointed, thin saddle feathers.

The bird up front in this picture is also definitely a rooster.

The long, thin, pointy feathers near the base of the tail are male saddle feathers. Only males will develop feathers that look like that. RIR pullets would not start developing and turning red in the comb until they were about 14 to 18 weeks old. These guys look like they have been red for a while.

All look like roosters to me.

X 2 - did you tell the seller you were looking for pullets?

jesmtz- Just curious. Was the seller telling you they were pullets? Good thing you posted pictures here! You wouldn't be getting any eggs from them.

 

[jesmtz]

Yes , she didn't guarantee anything. She said she bought them as a trio and believed to have already sold the pair . Good thing I posted them on here! Lol
