Rooster or Hen?

[sherlishaaa]

6 week Old Buff Orpington.
Many people are saying it looks like its a rooster but i don't see it. I raised an actual rooster years before , i just dont remember if it looked like this as he grew. Could it be? Its Name is Peep.

It looks like a rooster, but it's still hard to tell.

(Cute name by the way)

At 6 weeks of age a buff Orpington cockerel would have a larger comb and wattles developing. Also your bird’s beak is a bit long.

I didnt know the beaks length meant something!

The only thing it means is that she doesn’t have anything to rub it on to file it down and it could cause problems for eating and drinking. Is she being raised indoors or outdoors? Add a small paver to her set up and she’ll use it to file her beak down.
