3 week old “olive egger pullet”

[BeakoftheRooster]

bought this chick from TSC listed as a “olive egger pullet” from week one I’ve been thinking it’s a cockerel due to lack of tail feathers and size of comb. Chick is now three weeks old. Any guesses what breeds were crossed to make him? What about sex?

It could go both ways I think. I had a chick with absolutely no tail and with a comb that looks like that that ended up being a pullet.

Olive eggers usually have Marans and Easter egger in them, but no way to know for sure. I think the chick is probably a cockerel, but I wouldn't write it off yet. 6 weeks is a good time to start evaluating.
