Too early to tell? Golden Laced Wyandottes Male/Female

[Marianne25]

hello there, this is my third batch of chicks and I should know by now to be more patient...but I have one of my two GLW’s acting very much like a rooster. Other than his behavior I also noticed his tail feathers are practically nonexistent next to the other and it looks like his comb may be larger? They are a little shy of 4 weeks.

If this one is a cockerel, I’d like to start early looking for a home as I know how hard it can be to get rid of a roo.

Still too young. The comb isn't looking orangish or reddish yet. So still has a decent shot at being a pullet. Try posting pics again in 2 weeks.

Too young. Post pics of the comb at 8 weeks.

It's a bit early yet on your cuties.

Too young. The tail feathers can't tell you anything. Wait until they're 8 weeks or so.
