Just curious... I have this bantam and it is only 2 weeks old and has a very prominent comb. It doesn't look to have any red, I was just wondering if this is normal for cochin chicks or if it could be a roo... we would like it to be a roo, lol.

Thanks for the help everyone!!!

i have a 7 wk old black cochin pair and i'm thinking they both had combs at that age but at around 4 weeks Pen's started growing more than Truffle's did and started turning pink and at 7 weeks old is very bright red and Truffle's comb is a pale yellow
 
I'm thinking pullet, still kind of early. But what's with the droopiness, the fluffed feathers and the closed eyes? It it healthy? Looks a bit sickly to me.

I think it was just cold. One of my bigger chickens pooped on it and had it really bad looking. The bigger chick escaped its box during the night. I rinsed it off and dried it then stuck it under a light. It is fine now. Running all over its box with the other bantams.
