Beautiful pullet ❤️
 
:ya I'm also still in disbelief that out of the 7 chicks I got all 7 are pullets. This is the one with the most wattle and comb development though so I figured if one was going to be a boy it would be her.
Congratulations! I got 9 cockerels and one pullet last year. I was heartbroken but I love my line little girl. She’s brooding 7 eggs for me right now. I hope I have your luck

Oh man, that's horrible. I got them from tractor supply and then started reading about tractor supply not sexing them great so got a bit worried. Then this one had wattle growth at 4 weeks and so many people told me definitely a cockerel. So glad shes a pullet.

Ok. Mine I hatched from my own chickens. I got 6 from tractor supply last year March and all six were pullet
I got lucky. They were from an straight run bin

I'm too scared to hatch my own. I've noticed people who hatch their own get a lot of males.
 
Looks like a pullet to me as well. 4 weeks is awful early to be so sure anyway.

So in the future, don't start worrying until they're a bit older. If the bird is 8-12+ weeks and the majority say cockerel... then I might worry.
