Perth, Western Australia
So, my friends went for a bush walk up in the Perth hills and found this lil cutie. As I'm known as the crazy chicken lady, they bring it to me.
I determinded that its a Golden Laced Wyandotte, about 4 weeks old, but unsure if it's a rooster or a hen.. as they found it in the bush Im worried it could be a rooster and some horrible person released it into the bush when they found out the sex... still, not sure if this is the case. Help!

A very light pink to almost red comb are what I have seen young pullets (6-12 week) have. It fully depends on the rate of maturity as some females develop faster than others.
Imma share some pictures here for 6 weeks on 3/7/2024 chicks .

We have a Golden Wyandotte hen & rooster, and we couldn't tell the difference till maybe 13 weeks, maybe sooner.
