Think it’s a hen but not sure.

While back I was almost sure it was a cockerel but am now leaning towards been a large hen.
(She) is now 20 weeks old and around 20-30% bigger than the other two of the same age.
The comb is 20-50% bigger than the other two and the noisy one of the three. The feathers on the three look to be the same and the legs size is proportionate to the others.
She has been low on the totem pole but today I watched her face off with one of the others and jump on her back as if to mate.


Hen or rooster ?

It's a pullet.

 

[DobieLover]

Hi. My chickens are younger than yours. AND I’m new to chickens... so I will say HEN, because, you know, I’m an expert now after 3 months with 4 chicks.

I have a rooster— suspected it all along, but the proof was the in the feathers. I kept lifting and investigating new growth of saddle feathers... and I found them when he was 10 weeks old...

Wanna trade? I have a very cute rooster

Appreciate the input.
Have thought it was a girl for a while but my yard maintenance guy said it was a cockerel a while back. He claims to have had chickens most of his life. It did look like a cockerel for a while so I have to give him a pass on it.

Sounds like he wanted your bird then. lol. I don't know how anyone who has had chickens "all their life" could see the back of that hen and think it is a male. The neck, maybe some of those feathers could look suspect because of the patterning, but she has such a clear hen backside it's undeniable.
