Hi there,
Our wonderful chick whom the kids have named Sunshine is 3 weeks old. Can anyone guess if he is a he or a she, just for fun!
Thankyou

For fun I say pullet. You should know by 5-6 weeks as boys will get pink combs by than.

It’s to early to tell is better at 6-8 weeks! Sometimes you can tell sooner!

Too early to tell!

Adorable chick, either way!

Thankyou all! He/she is such a lovely chick, we love sunshine! I’m now googling BOs at 3 weeks to see if I can do some guess work and some at the same age have a much more pronounced comb. Maybe she is a she

I'm new to this but im going with pullet! Our one male had a much more pronounced comb at this point. But I'm saying that from a grand total of 5 chickens worth of experience

Too young, but if I had to guess, I'd say cockerel due to leg width
