Roo or hen??

[SourdoughChicks]

I seriously can’t tell if it’s a too or hen! It only has 1/3 of the comb it’s brother does and I just can’t make up my mind. It’s 8 weeks old.

Can you tell me why you think that??? I’ve been told it has a hens body and I agree. Just not sure about the comb.

His giant, red comb and wattles, way too big to be a pullet, and his coloring/pattern is all splotchy. I don’t agree that he has a hen’s body, he’s still growing, so you really can’t judge based on that.

He’s a big old mix, all my 100% pullets are also splotchy. He was sexed as a pullet through vent so I guess we will see… kinda bummed out… I can’t have 10 Roos

Who vent sexed him? It is quite tricky. Can we see pictures of your for sure pullets?

I mean, I can call in some experts, if you want. They’ll correct me if I’m wrong.
