These ARE roos, right?

well the comb and wattles are big enough, but they don't have rooster coloring.

See this rooster is flashy and shiny and yours look more like hens ready to lay.

Just like yours, you may have early layers and not roosters.

Do they squat?

Just want to vote with the wait and see crowd. I have had some very sneaky RIR's that have flat surprised me

I'd wait. Mine are almost for sure pullet and look like that but they are also 17 weeks old.

Absolutly roos!!! The tail feathers, the legs, even the head (big) are hints. They have boy's faces!

since their is some disagreement here, maybe we need a better picture.

can you get one from this angle?

so that the legs are fully visible and the tail shape is easy to see.

Thank you!

They are definitely roos. No question.

Thanks for all the feedback. They've had those big, red combs and wattles for several weeks (way before a POL hen), so I think it is safe to say they are BOTH roos. Here's the bad part: They were BOTH supposed to be pullets when I got them from the feed store. Go figure!
