7-8 week old baby. Gender?

[Sloane Chickens]

gender of this baby? Frizzle.

Noting: I got worried it’s a boy due to wattle and comb development and colour.
Someone said it was a girl tho..
but I’m really unsure!

Likely it's a cockerel.

I am going to be absolutely devastated if it is aha. The kids LOVE it. But we can’t own Roos. So how much longer do you think we will need to wait for an answer on gender?

Cockerel. Comb and wattles are already pretty large and those flecks of red coming are usually male specific.

Thank you!

Agreed on the cockerel. The rusty shoulders....comb size is pretty definitive too. He's a handsome one. As he's frizzled, rehoming may be fairly easy.
