4 month chicken; male or female?

[Dean126]

I have a mixed breed chicken. I'm kind of stumped if male or female. Help a guy out!

Yes, the sickle feathers are a strong indicator, and it is also growing the narrow, pointed feathers in the saddle area that are specific to males. Comb and wattles of that size and redness would not be present in a female even at 4 months, usually.

Male for sure.
