Its a boy ><

[RichmondHens]

We have loads of cocks to deal with this year - more than ever before. In the bantam horde mostly cocks, just a few hens. First few lots of LF Welsummers only cocks hatched. But the final lot is all hens!

I will keep my "boy" for a bit longer then! He may yet turn out to be a "she"!! (a very agressive she though!!)
P.S. The tails betwen the dainty definite pullet and "it" are exactly the same.

She looks like the bird pictured on this link

Cornish Meadow Light She is a Light Sussex hybrid - in fact she is very similar to one of my reds, but not in colour - she can be feisty e a bit when she wants to be

hmmm......looks like a prettier version of our "Bokky" (Lt Sussex Cross hen)
Bokky has a very big comb and wattles and is most definately a hen!

Hope he/she turns out to be what you want!

could be a girl.... if its a boy may not have more than bumps for spurs until much later.....

if its a girl its going to start laying really soon by that colouring.... so if no eggs in the next few weeks its probably a boy

Looks like the hens on that pic .Wish they said the age of the hens/cocks on that photo on the site .. Still s/he still acts very strange and im sure its a male , s/he picks on /pecks the other girls ( still no crowing or fighting my other males ) s/he is the big now ! same size as my 1 and a half year old RiR ex bats .
IF it is a male i cant see why he hasnt taken TOP DOG over my bantam lav araucana Thats so much smaller


Time will tell ...........................................
Next update image will be a roast dinner or a boiled egg

There is a 'top hen' as well, and some bantams are so bolshie they can be boss over much bigger birds.

its a lady Just found this in the hen house . At 54g Im so pleased. She did once have 2 long pointish end tail feathers but was peaked out at some point so i guess you cant always go on that then .Just the 2 araucana's and maran to go .
