Does anyone have an opinion as to what breed or gender my chick might be this early on? What I bought was labeled as a "breeder's choice pullet". A few people believed it to be a Black Sex Link. The first pic was taken the day I purchased her/it, and the other pics 2 weeks later. So I believe it to be about 3 weeks old? I'm questioning the gender because the base of the comb is starting to pink up.











 
I have 4 other chicks, 3 of them about a week older, 1 a week younger (I originally bought three, but my husband built a coop that could easily accommodate 6, so I added 2). Do you think it's too late at this point to add 1 more chick? I know I don't have a accommodations to integrate chickens down the road. But if I could still add another right now, I would be interested in doing that.

We're brand new at this, so please excuse me if this is a silly question. There is so much conflicting information out there, but I've found these forums to be the most consistent.

No, I say go for it! But I might suggest getting 2 more instead of one so your new chick doesn't feel left out.. But I'm sure you'll be fine!
