What Do You Think?

[brlarson84]

I am afraid that one of my Welsummers is going to be a rooster. It is between 5 and 6 months old. It is the same size as my pullets and hasn't started to crow but I think that I see saddle feathers. What do you think?

I am going to go on a limb and guess a roo... and I am only guessing that cuz of them tail feathers and the size of his comb in comparrison to the pullet next to him. But do not quote me! I honestly know nothing!

I see a Pullet - one getting close to laying.


I see no pointy saddle feathers, nor do her comb/wattles look like a cockerel/rooster.

That's a girl all the way. Girl color, girl feathering, getting ready to lay.

Definitely a hen, looks likes she's getting ready to lay!

Welsummer roosters are colored very differently!
