Cuckoo Satin Cockerel?

[Matilda Belle]

This one is 2-3months old. A cockerel, right?

Based on colouring I would say yes a cockerel as males are usually double barred like that one is while hens are always single barred like the other/darker one that you have is.

thanks. For once, I’m hoping this one is a cockerel.

@bantamsrmyfav Is there a trick to sexing cuckoos? I have a few more I’m curious about that are a little younger than this one and have red on their combs already. Does that mean cockerel?

Here are the other four I’m curious about.

They have such adorable faces. Yes usually if you see red combs they are cockerels. Darker feathered ones are pullets. D is definitely a pullet, the others are lightly feathered so they are probably cockerels. C is tricky in the last picture but the close up of the comb does look cockerel.
