10 weeks old, pullet or roo?

This one has been stumping me. I was thinking cockerel but then some days it looks more like a pullet (as I have another cockerel the same age with much more comb and wattle development than this one)

Any thoughts? Also, it was just a mixed breed I got from some shipping eggs on Ebay, any ideas what breed of chicken it might have in it?


Also, the red and black one beside it are 3 weeks younger, thus the size difference.

From the picture it looks like a pullet, but does it have spurs?

Could be a Partridge Rock, pullet...10 weeks? Hmmm not sure, comb isn't really RED per se, but it is a bit big for 10 weeks.. I'm more curious about the waddles though... At first glance, I would go with pullet.

No spurs I can see. I thought the same thing, does have a fair bit of comb for 10 weeks old, but nothing like my other 10 week old roo. Definitely stumped with this one!

At 10 weeks you would see neither Spurs or saddle feathers. Right now it looks like a pullet. Update us a couple weeks from now. Then you might see some saddle feathers coming in if it is male. Pretty bird!

It would be a great surprise if it was a pullet, as I had really been thinking rooster for a while. We shall see hopefully in a few weeks!

I'm thinking pullet for now, nothing is whispering "cockerel" at this point in time.

Another shot from today. The only thing still saying roo is the face still looks a little red to me and it sounds more 'raspy' than the girls. I am still keeping my fingers crossed it surprises me and turns into a pullet!

Definitely a pullet
