9wk old SL Wyndotte

[PDXRN]

Here is my 9wk old wyndotte and guesses as to what sex SHE is? She is always chasing the other 4 pulletts and jumping on them.

She has a single comb but read that was a normal variance. They were 90% that the chicks we bought were all pulletts.

Some of my 14 week old SLW pullets don't have a comb/waddle set that big! Expect some crowing in the future!

I would say cockerel, but that isn't the right comb for a Wyandotte.

Beautiful single comb Roo

What other than the prominent Comb is giving the sex away? The back endd looks kind of henish but the head definately looks pretty rooish.

looks like a cockeral, but SLW have pea combs

Standard of Perfection calls for wyandottes to have Rose combs, but anymore you will see more and more single comb wyandottes. Its a throwback gene that pops out every once in a while. His comb and wattles for that age, its a boy!

Wyandottes should have rose combs, not pea or straight combs. He is a he, not a she.

Yeah, thats what I said. They are supposed to have Rose combs, but hatchery wyandottes are showing single combs more and more.
