Any early guesses on this large fowl partridge cochin?

Way to young to know for certain, but I am a little unsure with that comb. Wren is supposed be a female but sexing isn’t 100% so was just wondering your thoughts

Still too young to be sure, but I don’t see anything particularly cockerelish

Wait until it starts to get chest feathers, makes sexing partridge chicks easy. Males have more dark feathers, while females have distinct pencilling!

If my Salmon Faverolles is male like I suspect aswell, that means I have to choose one to give away, that’ll be hard.

Aw.

I wouldn't assume yet. In my Partridge Brahmas, both male and female wing feathers looked very similar. Wait until chest before getting disappointed!

Looks like a cockerel to me

Oh that'll be fine! Her companions don't have to be the same breed! They'll still get along just fine

Oh that'll be fine! Her companions don't have to be the same breed! They'll still get along just fine ☺

Ok just making sure.

Do these look boy ish I think so but I’m not exactly sure View attachment 2243184View attachment 2243186View attachment 2243185

Looks a lot like my three pullets at that age. Too young IMO to say, really. This was my first one at a week old. Was 100% dark feathering throughout.

And at 6 weeks old:

And at 5 months old:

And two more we added this spring at about 3 weeks old (not the best Pic, but gives an idea of their coloring): These had a tiny bit more white on them, but also confirmed pullets.

the comb and waddle are especially apparent if you look at my black cochin
