5 weeks old - Is it a hen or a rooster?

[SkyAJK]

Hi, please help me identify a 5 weeks old chick gender?
This 5 weeks old chick is an offspring of an Isa Brown rooster and Isa Brown hen. Thank you.
It has yet grown feather under its wings, and belly. Very little tail as well. I am thinking it might be a boy.

I'd give it a few more weeks, the wattle growth is suspicious, but not enough for me to be absolutely certain

I'd guess a boy too.

agreed.

Looks like a rooster to me too

Likely it's a cockerel.

Thank you. I am very sad. I have to rehome it once it starts crowing.
I will post an update in a week time.

Try not to lose all faith, sometimes they surprise us and our word isn't always right. It might still be a pullet, just keep an eye on the size and redness of the comb and wattles and pray they stay pale and small

Thank you.
I am doing lots of

Update on my chick rooster or hen. The comb has not grown any bigger, and it is pink at the base of its comb, but still yellow and very light pink colour on the comb. Wattle grown a little bit and it is much taller. I am still praying.
