chuckmum6 Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I am certain that I have a cockerel (at the front) and one hen (at the back). The middle one I think is a cockerel, but he is smaller and has only just developed wattles - what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I'd say the front one was a cockerel but the other two are girls How old are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 I'd say 2 boys 1 girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mollie333 Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 2 boys 1 girl. My cockerel was as big as the middle one when he was 8 wks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom123 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Definitely two boys, the middle one is showing the black feathers and white feathers on his shoulders that only the boys have as they mature, also, he doesn't have the eyeliner as the girls do. He is smaller in the head department but the only reason I can think of is that because there are two the other one is the dominant one. Take him away and the other one will develop fast.

chuckmum6 Posted July 27, 2010 Author Share Posted July 27, 2010 Thanks, it is what I though too - two boys, I now just need to find homes for them both now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I think maybe a boy, but it does have similar feather colouring to the girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom123 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 They all start off like that and then the boys grow the black and white neck, shoulder and saddle feathers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
