Sexing 12 week old RIR

[mommiesrcool]

Hi so I bought 2 RIR pullets from TSC 12 weeks ago and I have no doubt that they are roosters but I wanted to see other people's opinions.

I'm going to call it as definite boy for #1, but possible girl for #2.

Both are pullets.

Both look like pullets to me too. I have RIR and they boys have much larger combs at that age. My 6 week old boys have larger combs than these ladies.

Noo I hope that's not the case. that they haven't even tried to crow and no mounting or fighting that was the only reason why I would think pullet, but the tail feathers on chick 2 make me think a little bit of a roo

Noo I didn't want to hear that they haven't even tried to crow and no mounting or fighting

At 12 weeks, most boys won't be crowing, mounting, or fighting. Everyone else seems to think that they're both girls, so I may be wrong.

What do you mean you didn't want to hear that if you asked us what we thought

I know but I always change what I think they are once I hear everybody else's opinions lol
