Speckled Sussex Cockerel or Pullet

[mamajo513]

I need some help. We have 4 year old hens, and 4 14-week old "pullets". Our speckled Sussex "pullet" has now started to crow! I saw online that some hens do crow, but I think maybe I have a cockerel. I'm attaching a few photos, if anyone can help me.







Thanks!
Karen

Your Speckled Sussex is definitely a cockerel. Sorry. (

That is definitely a cockerel. He's got male hackle feathers and male saddle feathers. Some older, dominant hens will crow, but young pullets do not.

Can you help me to decide if my speckled sussex is a pullet or roo?

Do you have pics of your chicks as 3-5 weeks old?
