abergavenny_chooks Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 I have recently acquired this little chook, which was suppose to be a Welsummer hen - but I have my suspicions that she may be a HE. Interested to know what you think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkor Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 then I would say boy.....due to face furniture, legs, stance and I think those feathers might be flowing downward. Don`t take my word for it though....I am no expert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Boy. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hmmmmmmmm, if the age is wrong then I think it could be a girl. It reminds me of our Poppy, who has a long neck, chunky legs and a fabulous tail. I had my doubts, I thought she might be a boy but she's just started laying at 23 weeks so I was wrong to think otherwise. But if it definitely is 12/13 weeks then there's a good chance it's a boy.
