5 week old Dominique

[Meezletons]

hello all!

I was hoping some of you could lend your expertise to sex my 5 week old Dominique. Recently, she’s been making some weird noises and her behavior towards the other pullets is making me wonder. She likes to dive bomb the others, and sometimes will climb on top of them (more like, wherever they’re roosting, she decides she wants to roost there and jumps on the others’ back). Recently her tail is starting to stick up and I’m wondering if she’s really a he? Also, she seems more of a light gray, which I know is a telling cockerel trait.

Why do you think?

Is it the tail or the coloring tat makes you certain? Or both? I’m trying to hone my chicken sexing skills

The legs are kind of thick and the comb is already starting to redden.

I'm not so sure about that being a cockerel.

It looks like a she because of the black on her legs.
