What is the sex of this chicken?

Age is always very important to know...but I'll guess about 12 weeks to 16 weeks?

And your top photo is not the best for color or highlights...so I zoomed in the best I could...if it represents the bird accurately...

The top Welsummer is male....black chest, red bars on wings, green in tail. Welsummer males and females are very differently colored.

The bottom bird is a Light Sussex, and assuming close to those ages, I think pullet.

This is another angle, in flight I thought it was a male

Agreed. And could you get a closer up picture of the first bird?

I agree.

If it is the age I guessed...12 to 16 weeks, this is definitely a rooster. You can see the comb development vs. general lack of body development. A hen would not have that kind of comb development until her body was filled out more and she was getting to point of lay.

Having said that, I don't think you have a full blooded Welsummer...it looks to be a mix as the colors are wrong for a Welsummer rooster.

First bird is a cockerel. Second bird is a Light Sussex pullet.
