SLW - Pullet or Roo?

[acrossthebranch]

I also think roo. I went back and looked at my SLW pictures at 13 weeks, and their waddles weren't nearly as developed, and all of the feathers on their backs were short. That last picture shows what seem to be definite saddle feathers to me!

I have SLW the same age & this is for sure a roo. My 2 pullets look nothing like this

I vote Roo, my 10.5week girls have small wattles and a small comb.

Both are 10.5 weeks.

Boy Sorry our friends have a 10 week old SLW roo and it has the same size comb and they know its a roo because it crowed.

I think I would hold out some hope that it could be a pullet. My girls have rather large combs and wattles IMHO.

Roo has alot of white

Yep, with all that white in the wing that is a boy.

I'm saying ....cockerel! Seems like alot of black around the base of the neck and tail area compared to mine. I have an 11 week old pullet...here she is
