Roos?

[BKJones20]

Someone in my area is selling these as cinnamon queen roos, they were born 4/29.. are they Roos, to me they look like hens?
Thanks!

Cinnamon Queens are, I think, sex linked. Males are lighter in color. So as long as these are in fact Cinnamon Queens, I think they're roos.

But I'm far from an expert. I'm sure someone more knowledgeable well chime in.

Agreed, cinnamon queens are sexlinked – females are predominantly red/brown, while males are white, sometimes with red leakage around their wings and back.
If these are cinnamon queens, they're roosters.

At 13 weeks I'd expect to see a lot more comb and wattles on cockerels. If you were wanting cockerels I'd see if you could swap them or get your money back.

They look like pullets.

My thoughts are they could be Cinnamon Queens that they bred themselves and won't breed true or be sex-linked. I don't think they look like cockerels, and being a production "breed," I think they'd be a little more obvious by now.

I was thinking the same thing. Or possibly the rooster or hen they used isn't purebred so the sexlinking didn't work like it should.
