5 week old Wyandotte pullet or roo?

[Whigru]

I say cockerel only because my Columbian Wyandotte did not start turning reddish in the comb until way later. However, she’s 36+ weeks and hasn’t laid yet so what do I know?!

Updated pictures! Now 8 weeks old and I wouldn't say there is a ton of difference. I don't 100% know what I'm looking for though

Comb and wattles still aren't giving anything away. Wyandottes are hard sometimes.

I still say cockerel due to the white across the wings. Update us again in 2 weeks. Hopefully there are still no changes, haha.

Thanks! Is there an age where it becomes obvious? Or do I wait until I see an egg or hear it crow

By 12-14 weeks it should be pretty obvious. The next few weeks should really be telling. Wyandottes are just usually slower to show their sex sometimes.

Still looking pretty girly, comb is pretty flat. Agree with @Overo Mare, you need some more time. Wyandottes are tricky. My 19 week pullet, that I’m 99.9% sure is a pullet, still makes me wonder once in a while.

I still say pullet, but I've seen some pretty girly Wyandotte cockerels. I'd always wait for 12 weeks.

Definitely a pullet. She don't have any male's traits. Very pretty bird!

I think its to early to tell yet. I have a brlw hatched in march. It took forever for him to show he was a Cockrel.. he still doesn't have alit of saddle feathers.. but waddled and the crowing for the past 4 weeks have given it away. Pic below...



Here are my girls ordered from meyer.. got them back in june...
