I think there is a good chance she is a pullet. My boys had more wattle and much redder by 8 weeks. Will keep my fingers crossed for you.

I am just watching my GLW chicks grow. Can't wait for warmer weather so I can move them to the outside coop permanantly. Most were hatchery chicks and a few were from eggs hatched. Some look great, some don't but I will give them time to grow and see how they look then. Ended up with three...

I am very excited to see how mine turn out. At 4 1/2 weeks I am seeing some with great feather pattern and some that are looking iffy. I will give them time. I put 12 in the incubator and by lockdown the number of viable eggs was down considerably so I ordered some from hatchery as well (4...

Just ordered some GLW and BLRW eggs and am VERY excited. Currently have Barnevelders, Barred Rock, Buff Orps, Australorps and EE's. Look forward to following the thread and hoping I have a successful hatch. Lots of beautiful pictures so far. Wondering what the experience has been with those...
