I love this chick but it’s huge & starting to get pink in the comb. Dad was a BCM, mama could be Ameraucana or multi-gen Olive/easter Egger. It’s just about 5 weeks old. Think I’ve got a boy? Also, is this considered a cuckoo or barred chick?

Sorry for the sub-par photos, the growouts currently live in my unfinished basement bathroom 😂 Appreciate any insight!

He's a cockerel. I'd call him Barred, but I'm not sure. Is the grey only on the tips of his feathers?
