Welsummer

[Doogie80]

Hi guys,
Just need some help confirming hen or rooster for my 12 week old Welsummer, Daisy. I think hen but when I double checked with the breeder I purchased them from they're saying rooster. I think the baby chick photo clearly shows a hen.

What do you think?

It is definitely a rooster and not a pure Welsummer.

Cockerel.

Devastated, I think 3/4 of my 'hens' are roosters, about to post photos of others.

Orphinton Buff and Sussex Light. Holding my breath......

The orp is male, unsure about the Sussex.

They are both hens.

Orp is male. It’s got saddles.

I don’t see any obvious saddles on the Sussex but that comb is very big and red fro only 12 weeks.

Nope.
