Rooster or Hen?

[ehammybaby]

Hi Y'all! My name is Erika...I'm new to chickens, but I do need opinions from you seasoned chicken parents out there! Is my barred rock a Hen or a rooster? Here's periwinkle!

Let me know your thoughts! We are in city limits so if she does end up being a "he" I'd like to start looking for a new home!

Thank you!

Welcome to BYC! That's a mighty big comb on that little guy. I'd lean towards a roo!

Yeah, looks like a cockerel to me, too.

With that much white and the large comb, I'd say roo!!

Awwwww dang! Thanks guy! I'm going to be sad to see him go, he's my favorite. :/ how long until he crows? (Aka how long do I have to find him a home)

Sorry, cockerel

It varies. I don't think he'll crow yet, though; I think you've got a little while longer, but you should probably start looking for a home now just in case.
