Yup, I thought it was a huge comb for that age....will be fun to keep my eye on this one and see what it turns out to be.

Yep!

I don't see any obvious cockerels, but they're still a little young.

Always been led to believe that this is a pullet but I'm still not 100% sure. 'She' is 4 weeks old tomorrow. Barnevelder x Cream Legbar

That's a rooster

That's a rooster

May I ask what makes you say that? Aside the comb (the pictures make it way redder than it is) he/she has no characteristics of either males of the breeds he/she is... and has more of the female colouring/markings I'm still 50/50 but I'm no expert.... just want to know so I can learn what to look out for, Whatever it is I still hope it's a hen haha...
