Most of my cockerels started to turn pink around 4-5 weeks. When I had 3 in the same group, the smallest one took quite a bit longer to show his pink.
The cockerel's comb stared sprouting.
These chicks are older, but guy in front got his big comb and wattles very early. He crowed early (and frequently) also. You can see one other boy behind him not quite as developed. A third cockerel in this group was barely showing at this point. Don't know if it is individual variation, or the effects of a dominant cockerel.
