7 week old golden laced wyandotte

[Bigegges]

I think he is a cockerel just wondering 7 weeks old. I heard they ate real pretty roosters so if anyone has pictures of their golden laced wyandotte roosters post them here

That young the pullets and cockerels will be feather patterned the same. Not until later they change to the more red. Happens overnight it seems. That red comb is saying cockerel.

Mine is a half breed. Daddy was a RIR and momma was GLW. He looked like his momma until he started crowing but has his fathers large comb.

I bought 3 day- old chicks three weeks ago out of the pullet bin at TSC. All three look like roos. Their combs are red and they're getting red wattles.
I am livid!!!!!
I have two silver laced Wyandotte roosters already that I'm trying to rehome!!
I don't want to eat them but I only have two older hens and don't want any roosters!

Do you have pics?

I don't because they don't hold still long enough!!
I'll try, but at 3 weeks old, my slw looked exactly like this.

If the comb doesn't confirm the sex look at the wings, seems all developing cockerels develop reddish band on there.

Most likely a cockerel.
