Yeah, quite a bit of comb growth there within the last 30 days. But I've seen hens with combs too

I thinks so too, on both counts ... I luv this bird's feather colors.

Spikennipper- I've got some serious hat eating to do if this bird does turn into a pullet and in response to wava1vaughn your bird looks like a pullet! how old?

well bring the hat and sit by me.. I have the salt.. cuz one of us is gonna have to eat it.. lol

Ha ha he's a roo! I now see stringy saddle feathers appearing

ll he won't crow just yet, still a little young, give him a month or so and I'm sure he will

Yes I have a hen with rooster sized comb and wattles, but that bird is shaped like an up and coming rooster . Also it looks like he has quite a bit of hackle feathers growing in. It's rare to see a comb that big on a pullet that young, even if it goes on to have a large comb at full maturity

Eta in my experience orpington pullets remain pale faced right up until they lay

Thank you very much! I took her to fair just to see if she was a good specimine for what breed she is! She is my first BO so I had no idea if she would do well, but I thought she is pretty so it was worth a shot!

I say there is definitely hope! As you saw my girls, and I know they are both girls because they are both laying. I don't want to say for sure pullet because they can always fool you until they crow lol. But based on my girls (who are both exactly the same age) there is hope

Keep your fingers crossed!

I love the barred pattern by the way, BEAUTIFUL!!!
