Are you referring to the white one as the other one in the background who's tail is also ambiguous?

I've noticed that both of them are more aggressive. I just assumed they were trying to be the dominant hen in the pecking order. They were also the ones that were 3 months old while the others were 2 months old.

Yep....that one looks more cockerel to me than this BA, even though I've not seen a good pic of it, that tail sure looks to be forming, as does the stance.

Oh NO! Now I'm worried. I have noticed the same thing too, ugggg. I'll try to get better pictures of her. She's an easter egger.

Cochin bantam. Sweet breed. Not good at laying or holding their own against other breeds.

@Beekissed, this one concerns me too. She’s an Easter Egger but seems very slim shape.

She does look like a HE. Head of a roo. Looks like pointed neck feathers. Looks like it’s developing a roo tail.... Hope you get at least 1 hen...

Oh, Mary, I hope those helpful chicken people weren't acting in bad faith and thought you to be a novice who they could pawn off some little roos on. :duc
