4 week old chick- pullet or cockerel? Also could use help on breed!

[kenzee07]

This is Zoro, my 4 week old baby chick! I got some hatching eggs for my broody silkie from a local guy, and Zoro was her only success.

The dad is either a cream legbar or isbar, the mom is some sort of brown egg layer. Not sure.

I would love some guesses on what you guys think the sex is, as well as if you have any ideas on breed.

thanks so much!

Mixed breed pullet.

Too young. For gender, post again at 6-8 weeks. For breed, you’ll have to wait until 12+ weeks, especially since it appears to be a mix.

Since you know that the father and mother weren't the same breed you know that it's a mixed breed. A Legbar x brown egg layer *should* create an olive egger.

Pullet.
CCL is the father. Even with a list of potential mothers it may be hard to know but with just a brown egg layer as a clue it'd be impossible to know.
She'll lay a shade of green eggs but not olive. You don't get olive eggs from crossing to a brown egg layer. It takes a dark brown egg layer.

I say pullet, it’s adorable. Do you have any recent pictures?

I’ll have to go take some recent photos. This is her a few weeks ago with her “mama”. She’s very attached, and went and snuggled up with mom while she laid. (Yes, that’s a wheelbarrow she’s laying in My chickens love to lay anywhere but the nest box).

She looks like a silver penciled rock, although you said she’s a mix. Does look like a pullet. Hope she stays healthy and happy

She’s not penciled.

What makes you think that?

I am not noticing any crest or barring on the chick, even in the newest pictures, so I think the Isbar rooster may be the father. (I had to look up Isbars, but the ones pictured on Greenfire Farms website do not have crests or barring.)
