The Age-Old Question: pullets or roos?

[AuntieE]

Don't feel silly for asking! We're all learning something.

It took me a while to figure out what pullets were too, only I was afraid to ask

As my teachers always said: "The only dumb question is one you don't ask."

I actually think it can be hard to tell with Australorps. I had 3, only one of which turned out to be a rooster. But at 8-10 weeks 2 of them had huge combs and wattles. One turned out to be male, the other female. That surprise hen grew a pretty big comb and wattles, even had pointy neck feathers. She got the biggest, roundest fluffy hen britches though!

to YYZ~ You're welcome! I really don't know about a favorites button. Maybe there would be info under Frequently Asked Questions in the Index?

Wood and Feathers~ thanks

I guess I'll find out for sure when one crows- or lays an egg
