Roosters?

[dvmmom]

I bought 6 "pullets" about 7 weeks ago and now I'm starting to wonder if half of them are roosters! I'm particularly suspicious of these 2... Thoughts?

No, def pullets.

No, def pullets.

Yay! They're both pretty dominant members of my flock and the super red comb and waddles on the GLW had me really worried!

Oh, sorry I forgot that glw have rose combs. Might be roo for that. Sorry!

How can we tell if they’re Roosters? I’m so new to this and have many questions. I’m still trying to learn how to post questions
I have 10 sexlinks and 5 Rhode Island’s. Sexlinks are 18 weeks my Reds are 8 weeks. Are there certain things I should look for to be able to determine?

 

[redranger209]

The sex links are 100 percent female, and the Rhode Islands are if you bought them as pullets. The key signs are crowing, longer hackle and saddle feathers, and larger and red combs.

And I did the thing about the rose combs because it grows slower then a regular single comb.

Can any one tell if these are roosters?

Both the GLW and the Buff Brahma in these photos turned out to be roos!
