This is a Roo, right???

[Chicken Junkies]

This little chicken was supposed to be a hen. Not so much, I think. Please let me know what you think. I'm seeing pointed feathers on his hackles and saddle. Not sure of breed either and was told he/she was from a RIR hen and EE roo. Any ideas?

Actually I think that is a hen. It looks like she has no spurs or male feathering and her comb isnt that big so I would go with saying shes a girl!

looks like a hen

Thanks, you guys are making my day. Don't need more roos.

How old is it? I think it's a roo. I see some shiny feathering on its back.

It does look like a RIR x EE.

Definite cockerel. Not a hen.

If Illa says cockerel you know it is.

Hope as we might.

I agree with Illia. The hackle and saddle feathers indicate a handsome cockerel in the making.

Short lived happiness there. lol Thanks though. Love those Shamos. Here is another picture of him/her from other side and back.
