It's a boy, and it doesn't really look like a welsummer.

Is it a bantam?

not quite sure...the breeder never mentioned it

Is it a bantam?

Well, whatever it is I think I was wrong on this one. It really looks like a cockerel now. Could it be a Seabright? I don’t know anything about the bantam breeds but it does look tiny for 4 weeks.

Ive had hope this whole time after your posts lol. but yea hes looking more and more like a cockerel.
Not quite sure what he is now....was told by the lady a welsummer and i got him at 2 days old so ive been on top of how old he really is. and he does look really small compared to other pictures ive seen of other birds

I’m waiting on 2 Welsummer’s to hatch...from what I’ve read the female has a dark well defined v on the head, defined eye stripe and back stripe the male is less defined. Large breed so I’d say a boy and very small for a Welsummer (but I’m no expert lol!)

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately his comb and waddles just got bigger and pinker , so we had to rehome him.
