Obsessed with this lil black guy. Pretty sure it’s a he but I’ve seen other cockerels go way redder waaay quicker.

Don't assume. Give her a few more weeks. If it's a male, he'll let you know. One of my cochin bantams went red in the comb and wattles at 3 weeks. 10 weeks later, I'm almost positive (like 99%) that she's a pullet.

Wow! That’s impressive. I’ll post an update photo soon.
