Would love Silver to be a Rooster

[Cybergardener]

Hello,

This is my first post here at BYC. Hubby and I are new chicken parents. We have a flock of 6, two of which are EEs. We want a rooster in our flock. One of our EEs, Silver, may be rooster. (hope, hope). Would love to get the opinion of others. Our flock was hatched on April 15, 2015. Pictures were taken 5/25 at age 5 wks and 5 days.

Here is Silver the dominate bird of the flock





Silver just feels "male" to me. Dominate, take charge, and confident. And look at these pointy tail feathers:






Our other EE is Goldie. She is most definitely female.






Would Love Silver to be a male. Thoughts?

Thanks,

Sandy

I would say so, I had an EE who looked just like him at that age!

Silver does appear to be a rooster.

Wonderful. Thank you to those who have responded. We are happy to have a little rooster. Can anyone tell me what he'll look like when he grows up?

Here's what mine looked like at around a year old.
