Thinking we have a roo!

[jffsangel1967]

We got 2 Jersey Giants from a farm and were told they were both pullets. Well, now we're pretty sure they blue one is a roo.
Any ideas?

He could go either way. Check for saddle feathers.

I've been checking, but so far I can't see any. He's still a bit fluffy aroung the tail. Not really any tail feathers yet. Kind of a bully to the white one. We're so hoping for a hen, because it's gonna be beautiful

I see saddles, so it is a male.

Dang it! I was afraid of that. Being new to young chickens is a pain. In the country, we didn't have to worry about it

Thanks!!!

We ended up rehoming both JGs and got a Dominique and a Cuckoo Marans, both 8 weeks old. We're using the see, no touch method with them. We separated the run, putting the newbies under the coop part of the run. So far, our older girls seem calmer than before. Hopefully it works out. Fingers crossed!!
