ROOSTER OR CHOOK

[Chooklover5000]

About 5-7 months old. My other bird from the same hatch is laying but this bird is a bit bigger and doesn’t ‘go to ground’ or lay yet. No spurs and only just grew in the comb and wattles this last month. No rooster crowing. Regular chook noises but a low voice haha. Very slow to mature but very large bird. And any guess on the breed? Thanks everyone

Light Sussex hen. Very good quality bird.

Columbian pattern, single comb, white feet ...

Light Sussex, perhaps?

Definitely a pullet -- no pointy hackles or saddles.
