Sexing my Barred Frizzle

[a_brinker]

Hi! I have some 11-week old pullets but it appears I have have at least one cockerel. My brown olive egger (photos attached) has begun crowing. Not every morning, but often enough.

Now, I need help deciding if my barred frizzled is also a cockerel. It and the brown olive egger are the largest of the bunch and when they spar, the barred one wins against the brown one. But I haven’t heard it crow. Any thoughts or advice?

I can’t have a rooster where I’m at so would like to get rid of it asap if so.

Yes, the frizzle is a cockerel. I am going by the size and color of the comb and wattles. And also by the amount of white in the 'bars' on his feathers. Double barring, which I believe he has, is only possible genetically in males. It means that the white bars are wider than the black bars on the feathers.

I agree on cockerel

yes, cockerel. If you are trying to rehome him, would you mind sharing your general location

Yup, this is what I anticipated. But good to get some confirmation.

I’m in the South-Denver area! I’ll look to rehome in the next week or two.
