5 week check in.

I think I have 3 cockerels out of the 4. Slow to feather. The first one I’m positive is a roo. Still early. EE type. They also seem smaller than others their age. Help. I know I’m annoying with this. Just trying to make preparations.

Sorry I mean the last pic is surely a cockerel. Not the first.

First two are pullets. The first is DEFINITELY a pullet. Third is slightly suspicious, but still totally on the fence. Last one can go either way honestly. Still leaning male for him though. ALL are very young, so do NOT expect these guesses to be 100% accurate. Update in a couple weeks (6-8 weeks is a good age for gender/breed ID).

The only one that could possibly be a boy is the last one. But it's early, and it will still be several weeks until you can tell anything for sure.

Are you sure? All pullets imo

I 100% trust your opinion!!!! I just see the pea comb on the last but no red. The EEs are hard to tell right? It’s what I see here.

Oh, I thought the "last one" was the single-comb one.
I still think all pullets at this early age. Bit soon to know though.

The comb thing is so confusing. Is a single comb indicating a pullet?

No, both genders can have single combs.

The two with the muffs (cheek floof!) have pea combs. Currently, they comb development looks pretty feminine to me.
The two reddish ones have single combs. Or is it one bird? There's two photos. Anyways, large pinkish combs at this age often mean male, but I'm actually leaning pullet(s?) based on the way the comb is developing. Just looks like an early blooming female as of yet.
