[Michie]

Hi I am posting some more pictures of my 5 & 1/2 week old black cochin. Hopefully now its easier to tell if its a he/she?? I was convienced it was a girl because the comb was little and yellowish. but today I noticed the waddles, and they are quite pink, much pinker than the comb, and I am starting to think maybe I am wrong?? Plus its not fully feathered, its hatch mate- a BCM roo, is feathered all the way. I am just sooooo confused. help please!!!! Thanks Michelle

***All these pics are of the same bird.***

Thats a big fat YES. lol. boyyyyy.

ETA: Mine are the same age. They are still not feathered out yet either. Cochins are slower feathering than most other breeds.

Some better pictures would help at this point I would say pullet. Mine started getting small wattles around 4 weeks.
