5 week RIR sexing help

[backyardbyfire]

Hello everybody,

Raising my first batch of chicks and wondering if the RIR here at the front is a cockerel or just developing a comb a bit earlier than the rest. We do have a Black Star rooster in there who developed their comb a couple weeks ago for comparison. Let me know what you think, thanks!

At 5 weeks old with that comb you have a boy.

Appreciate the response, bad news for their father, as he is kind of a jerk. Will probably give these two a go with the flock.
