Sexing Bantam Australorps

[BantamLover21]

They all look like pullets to me, too.

I'm sorry you didn't get a cockerel; hopefully the breeder will have one available.

These things happen unfortunately. It's all worked out, we are off to pick up a hand raised 11 week old Australorp roo this arvo!

Hello chicken family!

I am hoping someone may be able to assist with the sexing of my four 12 & 13 week old Bantam Australorps. I have read everything I possibly can on sexing them, but I find them all so similar I cannot tell. We were supposed to get from the breeder three females and one male. There are two (who I think are female), both 13 weeks and they are quite big, whereas the 12 week (female) and 13 week old (hopefully male) are still quite small. The one I suspect is a roo is just so friendly and curious I hope he is the roo, but he looks, to me, exactly the same as the others.

Cookie (female)

Lady (female)

Lola (female?)

Roostio (hopefully Roo)

Here they all are together

Anyone's advice greatly appreciated!

I have the opposite problem...wanted all hens and got 3 roos! Let me know if you want one - mine are the same age as yours - wormed and healthy.
