10 week old chickens—Gender help

[Goat-chicken-dog-mom]

I am new to this. These are my three, 10 week old chickens, hopefully pullets. EE ( purchased as an Amauracana), Golden Sex-link( who should be a pullet, right? But I’m suspicious) and a Buff Orpington.

I'd say they are all pullets.

Thank you. Fingers crossed.

All pullets.

Should a pullet have a comb and wattles like that at 10 weeks?

I would kinda question also. I have mixed breed chicks at 11 1/2 weeks and none of my pullets have any wattles whatsoever. But I guess it can depend on the breed maybe?

That’s my only thought. Outside of that I’m voting cockerel on that one.

Is it the sex link?

Unless it’s actually a hatchery quality RIR (couldn’t be due to the white), it’s a pullet. It’s a red sex link. She’s red. Her comb is pale pink. If she was a cockerel, it would be bright red as red sex link cockerels seem to develop quite fast. She just looks like a early maturer, which is normal for a RSL.

Still sticking with pullet.

All three are pullets. And your 'Ameraucana' is an Easter Egger. She appears to have greenish legs (could be lighting) but the colors presented and the single comb automatically say EE. She's close to ameraucana plumage, but not quite there. The single comb, though... that says it all.

Yes the red is a golden sexlink but has me concerned as well.
