Guys hoping you can help. I had two silver laced Wyandotte, one turned out to be a boy and had to go. As they were both the same age I assumed the smaller of the two was a lady. Now I am beginning to have my doubts. Here is a pic he/she is just over seven

months old.

It's possible that you could still get a roo. Hatcheries usually only guarantee a 90% accuracy on sexing. However, they're way too young to be certain either way. With my wyandottes, I usually have to wait until they are about 6-8 weeks old to sex them accurately.

I think you have an ancona hen.

Here's my little slw who exhibits roo attitude. Any thoughts? Here comb is very red and waddles (?) too.

Looks like a pullet. I have a 7 week one that looked just like her before getting her silver neck feathers at about 5 weeks.

King thistle- You have a SLW roo for sure.

Raliegh Deac- That's definitely a pullet. Have you had any eggs yet from her?

zigmont- Hope you have renamed wendy.

Wyandottes do not have white earlobes or single combs. It's definitely not a wyandotte.

It is probably an Ancona hen.
