White leghorns... Roos?

[carolynbaals]

I'm brand new to chickens, and hoping someone can help me and let me know if you think these are roosters or hens?

I forgot to add, they are 4 weeks old

looking like roosters, but I'd wait and see because Leghors can be tricky, wtih hens maturing quicker than usual.

Thanks for replying! Hoping they turn out to be hens, roosters aren't allowed in my town.

aw. That's too bad. I alwyas keep all my roosters. I don't have the heart to kill themmyself and would hate to see them leave the farm. Now I always want to have at least one rooster so I can hear crowing It's too bad that you can't have roosters. Mabe post some pics in a few weeks so we can look again.

I would totally keep them if I was allowed, but I'll definitely rehome them if they turn out to be roosters. I'll post another picture in a few weeks to make sure before I make any decisions. I appreciate your help!

Did you buy them as pullets or straight run?

 

[carolynbaals]

I bought them as pullets.

 

[ChickenLover200]

Then they should be pullets,but if not and they do turn out being roosters, maybe there's be a way to exchange them, BUT like I said, I'm not 100% sure they're cockerels, so the best thing to do is wait and see. Time will tell. Here's hoping you've got a couple of pullets there

I really hope so too!! I'm already attached and would hate to give them up.
