The birds in the attached are split blues.
The RH is from my season this year. The BH is a hen.
The colour looks similar to me however this RH has a sibling with less intense colour which leads me to believe the other is a hen and this one a rooster.
Frustrating as I can tell visually most of my split blues yet I struggle sexing some WB birds.
My eyes cant determine so I hope others can.
Thanks
Steve
Is this red head WB gould male or female

Hen was my thought initially. But the sister of this is lighter yellow on the belly whis is why I then thought it was a male.
Thanks for the advice. At least I have hens for the 5 spare roosters I have now.

Notice also that the back colour is lighter than a cock bird. This is what I spoke about in another Subject here last week or so. WB are sometimes different than PB in back colour. Only had this on the hens and not cocks.
