Rooster maybe??

[NewChickenmama06]

Hi, for those that remember about a week ago one of my pullets was sick. Update is she's doing great now no more symptoms yay!
With that said, my husband seems to think she is not a hen but a rooster. I am posting pictures so if anyone has an idea which she is chirp in.

Thanks when we bought them there was a 10% chance of getting a cockerel. ( never heard them called that before)! So I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Yes, usually the sexing guarantee is 80-90%.
Usually you hear most people just calling male birds roosters, but the correct terms are:
Cockerel = Male bird under a year old
Pullet = Female bird under a year old
Rooster = Male bird over a year old
Hen = Female bird over a year old

A very handsome boy. I bought pullet Plymouth blue rock, someone already told me I might have a Cockerel.

Thank you for that info. I am so new at this and have so much to learn. I'm so happy I have joined BYC! Everyone is so helpful.
