6-week old chick - pullet or too early to tell?

[RoosterWhisperer]

Is my 6-week old a pullet?

They're a partridge silkie x who seems to be taking after their silkie parent in terms of butt fluff. By 4 or 5 weeks old they were almost completely feathered, certainly their mid-back and wing bows as well as crop/chest area. No visible comb or wattles at this point but I know it can take awhile for silkies. Weigh in with thoughts please!

Oh boy, a humdinger.......
I honestly dont know, looks boy-ish in the face, but that's not 100 %.

Do you have updated pictures?

I do! This is from last week I think (she's around 9 weeks now). Pretty confident she's a pullet, but waiting for an egg or a crow now

Do you have a picture from the side? Looks like a pullet-specific coloring, but I would need to confirm.

Unfortunately don't have many recent ones, but her coloring hasn't changed from the last pic (from ~3 weeks ago)

In case it helps anyone, she ended up being a hen! Laid her first egg this week at 24 weeks

Her plumage is such a nice rich and warm color! Definitely one of the prettiest pullets I have seen. Top 5 prettiest. I want her!
