Not Sure If You've Got A Pullet Or Cockerel? Click Here! Thread 2

[camochick96]

Pale comb and no wattles at 7 weeks is looking good for a pullet. There's always the occasional late blooming cockerel, but so far so good.

Thank you!

I have Black Tailed White Japanese and I thought for sure it was a cockrel but now I am not so sure she/he is 10 to 12 weeks. Any guesses?

View attachment 1025019 I have this three and a half month old barred rock. At least I think that's what it is, it was my "rare" chick from the hatchery. Do I have a pullet or cockerel?

White legs and cuckoo pattern. It's a cuckoo Marans. The hatchery stock lacks leg feathers.

I've got two chicks that I am hoping are actually pullets as they were sold. I'll post a few pictures of each of them. First up is a Speckled Sussex appx 6.5 weeks old. Of the 4 chicks (various breeds) this one has the second largest comb and as a newbie I have no idea what to expect!

My second chick I'm a little a worried about being a cockerel is also about 6.5 weeks old and is BO.

So far they look like pullets. The sussex is very pretty! It's hard sometimes to sex a chick without others to use for comparison. If you saw combs like that when the chicks were 3 wks, I'd be concerned that they were cockerels. And at 6 1/2 wks, if the combs were red rather than pale peachy pink, I would also think they were cockerels. But the size and color of the combs are within expectation for a pullet.

I have a few 8 week old Easter eggers that I need to give away soon. I am still unsure about a few of them and any help would be appreciated.
